Dr John Kerr passed away today, 11 September 2015, three years ago. He always made time for people and contributed with kindness on so many levels in our town. He along with his wife Alison and family were marvellous hosts to all who visted their property. They served as volunteers overseas. He and Dr. Peter Stormer were awesome doctors at Stortford before they both went on to study and use their skills in other areas of medicine. Along with his lovely kind eyes and his sincere care, I loved the way he would listen to people. Missing my friend and role model.

Hi there
I am the Hastings Area Coordinator for the Pink Ribbon Appeal and this year (possibly because it falls in the school holidays) we are desperately short of collectors for Hastings - so far we have only 95 and we need a further 79 - I understand Havelock North has plenty!

To those of you who have yet to decide (or have decided but not yet signed up) it would be wonderful if you could sign up soon. I also encourage you all to talk to neighbours, friends, family and get them on board too.

Hastings neighbours are fearful of having wastewater back up and flowing out their toilets, and so were delivered portaloos during this week's heavy rainfall.

Mandy Cotter and her family, who live on Lawrence Street in Akina, were one of eight properties to receive a portaloo during the deluge that began early this week. Cotter, who has lived at her property for 14 years said the threat of backing up toilets had only arisen in the past few years.

How are things in your neighbour? Have you got a portaloo yet? Let us know!
