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.
* Canβt 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: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? π»π¨π
In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?
What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
-
34% The sting of a fine (Money talks!)
-
66% The threat of demerit points (Nobody wants to lose their license!)
Lawn mowing
Hi Everyone
I have availability on my lawn mowing run at the moment, for regular cutting, in the Napier area. My customers include residential and commercial properties and they are happy with the service I provide. Autumn is also a great time to get your lawn sorted, if you need some help. I have also had customers in the past, that were selling their property and needed it tidied and maintained, while on the market.
So if you are interested or need a quote, or know someone that needs help with their lawns? Please contact me.
You can reach me at 027 3731310 or Bradley.mw@gmail.com
Have a great day!
Michael from Blade Lawns.
