Te Omanga Hospice Street Appeal Volunteers needed
Our Street Day Appeal will be held on Friday 17, Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 May (Upper Hutt Brewtown Market only on Sunday). Can you help the thousands of people supported by Te Omanga Hospice by volunteering to collect donations in the Hutt Valley on one or more days?
If you can help, please fill out our online survey and let us know the day/s you are available to volunteer. www.surveymonkey.com...
Thank you in advance for your support. We will be in touch as soon as possible in May to confirm your location, time of shift, plus any further information. Please diarise the date and time/s you have volunteered for in the meantime.
Be sure to pass this onto your friends and family too!
If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact events@teomanga.org.nz.
Moe mai rā, Nicholas.
We're sad to announce the passing of Nicholas Boyack, our Hutt Valley reporter who has long written for The Dominion Post, The Hutt News and Upper Hutt Leader.
What's your favourite tomato recipe?
Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
