Hi neighbours!

After more than a year of closed borders, Australians and New Zealanders will soon be able to jet-hop between countries after the government announced that the trans-Tasman travel bubble is to be operational from April 19.
With quarantine-free travel now possible, are you more likely to head across the Tasman or travel domestically?
Fronting Australian media yesterday, Jacinda Ardern not only spoke of the excitement of families being able to be reunited, but also pitched New Zealand tourist activities to Australian viewers.
"If there is a hot spot in one of the states of Australia we may just act in the same way that another state would ... Just prepare that there may be disruptions, but what better place in the world to be stuck. Am I right?," she said.
The trans-Tasman bubble will operate on a three tier basis: Continue, Pause and Suspend. If there are a few cases in Australia linked to the border, quarantine-free travel will continue. Travel may be paused for 72 hours if there are rogue community cases and in the instance of a state or nationwide lockdown, travel will be suspended.

I'm organising a fundraising event for Dementia Wellington. I have been personally impacted by Dementia and currently care for my Mum full-time who has advanced Dementia. There isn't a lot of support for carers like me in the community and Dementia Wellington have been there for me time and time again, from providing support and education. One of their advisors is only a phone call away when I need some advice or just someone to talk to. Their education sessions have helped me get a much better understanding of what's going on with mum and the supporter groups have been invaluable for support and socialisation. The majority of their income, comes from fundraising events and due to Covid this has been impacted so I want to do my little bit to help this organisation keep doing the great work they are doing. All the money Dementia Wellington raises goes towards providing free services to local families, and to running dementia education programmes.
Below is the link to the event, which is a showing of the film The Father starring Olivia Colman and Anthony Hopkins. Your support would be hugely appreciated.

Nicole Thornton, 16, has helped launch a campaign to get businesses to provide toilet access to people with Inflammatory Bowel Diseases. Now, Hutt Valley business leaders have backed the initiative.
On Tuesday, the Upper Hutt City Council and the Hutt Valley Chamber of Commerce launched a campaign for better access to toilet facilities in Upper Hutt.
They are requesting that local businesses willing to allow IBD patients with toilet access prominently display a poster in their window stating that they honour the “I Can’t Wait Card”.
