Late notice about tomorrows meeting..... Safety first Bupa safety watch alarm watch.

Carol Winters from Age Concern Havelock North

Believe it or not, there is now NZ’s first GPS based watch connected to a round the clock response centre. What does this mean for you?? Well there are many safety applications for sole workers out and about but also if you are reliant on a health alarm in the house and feel house bound these watches will take that worry away. Its as simple as pushing a button on the watch and you'll be connected through to a 24/7 contact centre.. I've had a demo today and was blown away by it.

Tomorrow we are having Hawkes Bays first live demonstration of this product.
Location: The hall at the rear of St Lukes Church - Te Mata road
Time: Presentation will start at 10 but come along earlier for a cup of tea.
If you're interested but can't make it we'll be having demonstrations at our Expo in September also. If you would like more info about this then let me know and I can put you on a list to be the first to get a brochure when they become available.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
