Looking for clothes to suit your fuller figure? Come to my front porch in Waterloo!

Monica from Waterloo

Hi, I am selling some unwanted items of clothing to raise money for Greenstone Doors www.greenstonedoors.co.nz... They are primarily large and extra large sizes.

Greenstone Doors is a Charitable Trust which functions as a pregnancy focused centre where women and whanau are able to receive accurate and professional information and care.

We provide education, counselling, resources and support for women and their families during and after pregnancy through an independent network of counselling and support professionals. There is no other organisation like out that offers non-judgemental support to women before, during and after pregnancy whatever the outcome.

The clothes will be on our front porch at 23 Burnside Street, Waterloo each day 7am - 7pm. Suggested donation per item for the clothes on hangers is $5-$10 and for the items in the box below $2. There are envelopes to put your donation into which you can slip under the front door. There is no change obviously and nowhere to try clothes on. I would ask that all hangers are left behind please and the wardrobe is not for sale. We have a dog who may bark but she is secured in the back section so no worries there.

All monies raised will go towards advertising and promotion of our big 'Shoetember' shoe sale which will be held in September this year.

Thanks in anticipation of your generosity!

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?
