It is with great excitement that we are now taking Registrations for next year's Nelson Tasman Relay For Life. This Overnight Event will be held at the A&P Showgrounds in Richmond from 4pm on Saturday 21st March to 8am on Sunday 22nd of March. Thank you to our major sponsor G.J.Gardner. Homes.
Let's do something remarkable TOGETHER!
Relay For Life brings people from all walks of life together for a common cause. The Cancer Society is wanting to get as many people, businesses and schools within the wider Nelson and Tasman community involved in Relay For Life 2020.
We invite those new to Relay For Life and previous participants to support this event by registering and getting their teams together.
Teams are made up of friends, family, co-workers, and your local community. The 2020 event will not only have Individual and Team Rewards, but will also include Business and School Challenges.
Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.

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!
