Halloween in the Hutt Map - Participation Call 🎃

Gemma from Avalon

This is my 4th year running this map for Upper Hutt and Lower Hutt communities.

Last year I had over 100 locations (private homes, organisations and community events) signed up to be on the map, and it’s shaping up to be another great year of ensuring a safe spooky season for all!

If you would like to participate in the map, please complete this form forms.gle...

Key dates:
12:00pm 29th October 2024 - Map goes live to the public
12:00pm 31st October 2024 - Map participation sign up closes
3:00am 1st November 2024 - Map is removed from public view

Details regarding the map and personal detail usage is provided on the sign up form.

Follow “Halloween in the Hutt” on Facebook & Instagram for more details.

If you need incentive/encouragement to take part, here’s a glimpse of what the map currently looks like and the photos are my place (Avalon) last year! Adults and kids alike had fun and took photos with some of the props we had out (the executioner block).

Looking forward to the spooks ahead and thanks in advance for participating!

Kmart duvet recall

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Kmart will be recalling a number of their Anko duvet sets.

What you need to know:
- The recall is involving Christmas-themed duvets: Mrs & Mrs Claus Reversible Queen Size Bed Quilt Cover Set and Christmas Elf Reversible Single Bed Quilt Cover Set
- A recall of the products began in Australia following health concerns from several families.
- One woman said she thought she was having a heart attack after using one of the products which smelt of diesel.
- One customer said she’d purchased the quilt covers and said they smelled like gas. Another mum said hers did not have that smell but claimed her son developed a rash that only went away when he stopped using the product.
- The product is no longer available for purchase on the Kmart website.

Regardless of whether you have experienced an issue, customers who have purchased this item may return the product to store for a refund.
