Grey Power Meeting
Grey Power's main goal is to advance, support and protect the welfare and well being of older people - aged 50 plus.
Locally we have interesting monthly meetings which the public is invited to attend. Our next meeting will be on Friday, 17 March at 10AM. This meeting will be held at the Senior Citizens Rooms which are on the left as you enter the Queensgate Countdown car park. The guest speakers will talk about Advance Care Planning which is a process of thinking about, talking about and planning future health care. This will be followed by time for questions and morning tea.
If you would like to attend our meeting, you will be most welcome.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?
Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.
This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚
