Volunteer Driver for Friday mornings needed.. And other volunteer opportunities.
One of our amazing volunteer drivers has sadly retired. So we're reaching out to our lovely community to see if anyone is keen to help us out 2 or 3 Friday mornings a month. You'd need to be wonderfully patient.. we are Age Concern after all.. be able to drive a manual Ford Transit van, pass a police check and have a great sense of humour.
The hours are pretty cool too, from around 9am to 12pm at the very latest. And if you were keen on helping out driving for some of our outings, then that's a bonus.
If you'd like to have a chat about this, either send a message via Neighbourly or email me on info@ageconcernhb.org.nz or call Carol on 8776488.
Poll: Could we live without public bins?
Many public rubbish bins are being removed by councils due to the large costs of regularly emptying them. Do you think we can adapt and live without them?

Fluoride Free Procession and Protest
Thursday 18th April at 11am.
Many Hawkes Bay residents will have seen notices and petitions that Fluoride Free Hawkes Bay have circulated. Hastings District Council added hydrofluorosilicic acid to our water supply without informed consent, and without warnings placed at the Flaxmere and Havelock Nth water distribution points. This toxic chemical is harmful to many but especially pregnant mothers and bottle-fed babies.
Fluoride Free New Zealand and NZDoctorsSOS have filed an injunction in the high Court contesting this action.
On Thurs residents are urged to meet at the Hastings Civic Square, and then at 1130am sharp proceed through the Hastings CBD, arriving at HDCouncil about 12noon where professional speakers, local and throughout New Zealand, will explain the problems with this recognised poison.
Please share this public notice to whanau, family and friends.
