Daisy Dives for Dementia - Alzheimer's Awareness month
givealittle.co.nz...
Daisies Diving for Dementia is happening Saturday 24th September!
All funds raised go towards Alzheimer's Society Nelson/Tasman so we would LOVE for you to donate to support the people in Nelson living with this disease.
Rhys, Tracey and Harry are this years diving team and are going out of their comfort zone (yet again!) to raise awareness and funds for those who have Dementia, and who are living out of their comfort zone each and every day.
Sophie, on the other hand, will be watching from the ground this year as she is with child!
Watch this space for additional daisy divers, the more the merrier, so let us know if you'd like to join the team!
Some Choice News!
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!

Poll: Should we be pushing a soft-plastics recycling rollout across the whole region 🗑️
Nelson City Council has confirmed that the kerbside soft plastic trial is continuing for the current 1,000 homes. It’s a fantastic step towards being more sustainable, but many of us are still waiting for our turn.
We want to know: Should we be pushing for a rollout across the whole region? Or are you happy to keep using the drop-off points at the supermarket for now?
Is this something your household would actually participate in! ♻️
