Red Cross Journey 2019
New Zealand Red Cross is excited to announce that registrations are now open for Red Cross Journey 2019.
Red Cross Journey is a step a challenge. The idea is you walk 10,000 steps a day, either as an individual or a team whilst raising vital funds for people in need. As you walk you will receive updates on the real journey of a Red Cross delegate or former refugee family who have resettled in New Zealand to motivate you along the way. All you need to get started is a pedometer or phone/watch that tracks your daily steps.
Red Cross Journey is a national event but here in Hawke's Bay we have a couple of exciting events planned, keep your eyes peeled for more information.
* Can’t be involved in the event but want to help spread the word please feel free to share this information far and wide, the more the merrier!
* Are you a business and want to sponsor a prize for one of our events or challenges? Please contact amber.mcarthur@redcross.org.nz to talk more.

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
36.6% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
62.6% No, I enjoy it
-
0.8% Other - I'll share below

but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?
