Random Acts of Kindness – August 1st to 31st
All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From giving flowers to a neighbour ‘just because’ to paying it forward in line at a cafe - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.
The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free.
For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas:
* take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself,
* build a free community library for your street,
* buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank,
* bring treats into work for colleagues,
* send an encouraging text to someone who needs it,
* let a car into the traffic ahead of you,
* write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood,
* surprise loved ones with a visit.

A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
Do you think you know the answer? Simply 'Like' this post if you know the answer and the big reveal will be posted in the comments at 2pm on the day!

Fast paced comedy!!
I have agreed at very short notice to be involved in a Nelson Fringe Festival show! Alice has turned 65. On her party evening, she nods off watching late-night telly, and wakes in Retirementland. A wacky adventure ensues - the Rat Race sweeps her along and a wry cat asks difficult questions.
A playful kiwi comedy about rediscovering identity, and exploring and embracing life beyond work.
Alice in Retirementland features all your favourite characters in crazy new scenes adapted especially for Alice's latest adventure - rediscovering what is really important to her now that she has reached retirement age.
This mad action will appeal to anyone whether or not they are in a similar stage of life - there will be laughs for everyone as you spot your childhood favourites in their new roles.
This fabulous perennial tale has lost nothing in the re-telling, and promises a great night out for all!

Comedy show coming up!
Get ready for promotion time for Nelson Fringe Festival! First up is Dr Jo Prendergast Comedy! Come laugh through the tough stuff: songs, sketch and standup about #coping with juggling work, relationships, kids, menopause, illnesses and high maintenance indoor plants! From a multi award-winning comedian, psychiatrist, and fellow life juggler!
Yep, Dr Jo Prendergast is #coping! But only just!
Have you felt like you are juggling so many things in life, that at any moment they might all come crashing down? Or that there are so many unrealistic expectations about how you need to be?
Laugh and learn with toxically positive ‘Barbi’ skits, authentic lifestory comedy and a touch of TED talk from a psychiatrist – about how we cope with juggling the expectations that come with our multiple roles in life.
Jo's earlier show The Cool Mum won Audience Favourite and Best Solo Show Nelson Fringe.
She has featured on TVNZ’s Adam and Eve Show, The Jess Rowe Big Talk Show, The Project, Channel 9 Today Extra, ABC Weekend Breakfast, the AM show and TVNZ Breakfast, BBC Radio 5 Live and BBC Scotland TV Best Jokes Edinburgh Fringe.
