We asked, listened, and collaborated directly with farmers in the making of this gear. We tested and re-tested in on-farm environments. We re-engineered what farming workwear can be with your needs front of mind. We brought our decades of experience creating world-class performance gear. Add to that a legacy of Kiwi innovation, a challenger spirit and a practical attitude that’s been part of Line 7 since we started back in 1963.

Every detail has been reviewed and refined – without overlooking the obvious. Breathable, flexible, functional and comfortable, while still being supremely durable and waterproof. Made to fit farmers of all shapes and sizes, with a dedicated range for women. Built to last, and last a bit longer still, with an included repair kit that means you can fix it up quickly yourself.

Now take it out there, try it on and put it to the test. Wear it out and wear it again. We’re pretty damn confident you won’t be disappointed.

You can find it at Waihoihoi River Park, 70 The Centre Waipu. It's just a 25-minute drive from either Mangawhai or Whangarei The swing is in operation. This requires no key; just take your child or adult and enjoy the swing. I have seen the smiles on disabled children's faces, and I am over the moon that we accomplished this fundraiser.

Already underway is another round of fundraising for a wheelchair-accessible sea-saw for Whangarei.

Children with Disability New Zealand aims to educate and improve understanding of the needs of disabled children and adults. We have a comprehensive, high-quality website with lots of useful information. Here is a link to the Swing based in Waipu, but while you're there, have a look around our FAQs, which may help give answers to common problems in loving and caring for your disabled family members: www.childrenwithdisability.co.nz...

Our 8pm screening will be the delightful Korean film, Broker.

THE WORST PERSON IN THE WORLD
Norway (English subtitles), 2021, Comedy, Rated M

Julie is estranged from her parents and battles her own indecisiveness on a daily basis. Working part time in a bookshop, her dream is to allow herself to manifest happiness in her relationships and forge a challenging and satisfying career path.

But to put several years of false starts behind her, Julie knows she will need to take an honest and realistic look at who she really is.
