Active Ageing Expo in Havelock North
Join us for the Active Ageing Expo in conjunction with the International Day of the Older Persons Celebration on the 25th of September!
The Expo/Celebration has been planned for older persons and their families who at times struggle with not knowing “what’s out there for seniors”. We will bring together under one roof service providers and other organisations (e.g. clubs) from around Hawke's Bay to present a wide array of interesting and informative displays representing all facets of today's lifestyles for older people.
The expo will provide the older community opportunity to find out about service providers and other organisations available to them in a relaxed, informal atmosphere.
The Expo will be a free to attend community event with all ages welcome.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
