Bus Service Survey
The Invercargill City Council is reviewing the city’s bus services, which last changed in 2012.
We’d really like to know what bus services you want (even if you don’t currently use them) to help us work out what Invercargill needs for the future.
To gather the information, a householder survey has been developed (one survey to be completed by each participating household). The householder survey should take just a few minutes and should reach the Council by Monday, 15 May 2017.
There are three ways to have your say:
◦ONLINE: Complete the survey online
◦LIBRARY: Drop you completed form into one of the labelled boxes at the Invercargill Public Library in Dee Street, or
◦POST: Post your completed form to:

Changing the conversation around dementia
Reducing stigma starts with the words we use, and shifting the way we talk about dementia is a powerful step forward. This World Alzheimer’s Month, Ryman is highlighting the importance of reducing the discrimination caused by stigma surrounding people living with dementia.
Caroline Bartle, Ryman’s Dementia Care and Innovations Lead, says that using appropriate language when referring to people with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia can foster a more inclusive society. This not only benefits those experiencing cognitive decline but also their families and the wider community.
