Pre Audition Meeting 'Twist & Shout'

Steve from Taradale

"The Frivs" (Napier Frivolity Minstrels) next production is called 'Twist & Shout'. This show is a Musical Comedy set in a Holiday Camp in England in the 1960s. Great songs throughout. The local Mayor is trying to rip off the Campers and they are not happy. Revenge is on the cards. The Yellow Coats are responsible for providing activities for the Campers whether it be Bingo, Fashion Parade, Exercise Class or Archery. What could go wrong?
If you are aged between 17 and 80 there's something for you in this show. On stage from 3 April to 15 April
Come along to the Pre Audition Meeting to be held on Wednesday 9 November at the St Augustines Scout Hall at 104D Latham St opposite Bay City Gym up long drive. Meeting will start at 7pm. Find out about the characters, get audition scripts and get a head start on everyone else.
Cheers
Steve Driver

Changing the conversation around dementia

Princess Alexandra Retirement Village

Reducing stigma starts with the words we use, and shifting the way we talk about dementia is a powerful step forward. This World Alzheimer’s Month, Ryman is highlighting the importance of reducing the discrimination caused by stigma surrounding people living with dementia.

Caroline Bartle, Ryman’s Dementia Care and Innovations Lead, says that using appropriate language when referring to people with Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia can foster a more inclusive society. This not only benefits those experiencing cognitive decline but also their families and the wider community.

Check your supermarket receipts

Patricia from Taradale

Today I went to Woolworths Cnr Munroe and Dickens Streets, Napier and purchased a 3 litre bottle of Woolworth milk. I got a surprise to see that it had gone up from $5.72 to $5.96. However, when it was scanned at the checkout I was charged $6.06. I was confused and thought I had got the price wrong so went back to check, sure enough the shelf price was $5.96. When making a complaint with the supervisor I was offered a refund of the error difference, but I said this was not right. She then refunded the full amount and told me to keep the milk. If you are concerned about your grocery bill it pays to check and complain if you believe an error has been made.
