North Shore Initial Response Trust
Every week we voluntarily train to prepare for disasters when emergency services require additional support in searches for missing people, sandbagging to protect properties from flooding, and helping limit damage to people and properties following events such as tornadoes, storms and tsunamis. As a group of volunteers, we are not paid for any of this activity. Since the equipment is exposed to extreme weather events and difficult environments, it regularly needs to be replaced. There is some vital equipment we are in need of in order to be able to continue our dedicating our time to helping keep people safe. VOTE NOW!

Riverton Community Garden Project
Our goal is to create a self-funding, sustainable food producing garden that can eventually start to give back to those most in need within our community, such as struggling families, and the elderly. We rely on various age groups to look after the garden, including the Riverton Primary School, Aparima College (local high school) and Riverton Childcare and other local volunteers. We are seeking funding to establish infrastructure to support the garden for many years to come. VOTE NOW!

He is under good control has had all his vaccinations up to January 2019, he is micro-chipped on the national database, reg with Napier council and neutered. His current owners don't have the time to spend with him as he likes to be walked often and enjoys a good run around. He has been brought up around children and has a lovely nature. He would be a great friend to any one looking for a companion. As with any Black Lab a fenced section is best and he will only be re homed to approved owners. If you are interested in meeting Tyson or know someone who may like him (and genuinely has time & motivation for him) please make contact through Neighbourly.

Seddon Community and Neighbourhood Support Group
Seddon is our small rural township located to the south of Blenheim on SH1. Rocked and devastated (again) by the quakes in November 2016. With the loss of access to Christchurch via the Main North Line, and SH 1, we are at the “end of the line”. Every one of our self employed residents has taken a huge hit, many of whom can no longer support themselves especially with the removal of all emergency funding as of the 14th February. we are hoping to be able to provide to the whole community, access to essential first aid kits at reasonable and affordable costs to all the residents. It is for this initiative we are seeking some funding in order to subsidise these kits. VOTE NOW!!

Kittens

Lisa from Mayfair

Hi there,

My sister had a heavily pregnant cat turn up on her doorstep and have 5 kittens last week. Aparently the SPCA are simply too full to take them in. If anyone would like a kitten please let me know. They will require the usual procedures from the vet. Regards, Lisa
