Rates Rebates - Fairly topical right now!

Carol Winters from Age Concern Havelock North

Tomorrow we have someone from the HDC coming along to talk to the group about rates rebates, who can apply, what you need to do and much more.
Many people don't realise that they may fit the criteria for the rebate scheme but hopefully after tomorrow we'll all know a bit more.
Date: Friday the 20th April (tomorrow)
Time: 9.45 for a cuppa ready for a 10am presentation
Location: Hall at St Lukes church 24 Te Mata road. Located at the rear of the church.
Open to anyone who is interested.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz
