All proceeds will go directly to the Women's Centre, helping them continue their essential services for our community. As you know, The Nelson Women's Centre, Te Whare Āwhina Mō Ngā Wāhine Puawai, is a vital support hub for women and non-binary people in the Nelson Whakatu community. The centre offers affordable counselling, workshops, and a safe space for connection and growth. However, our funding crisis has recently forced us to pause some essential services.
To help us continue providing these crucial resources, local volunteers are organising fundraising events like this one. These initiatives aim to ensure that the centre can keep its doors open and its services accessible to those who need them most. Your support can make a significant impact on the lives of many in our community. Join us in uplifting the women of Nelson Whakatu by supporting this worthy cause!
We hope to see you there!
Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️
First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.
While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.
And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
-
33.3% Yes - get rid of the clock changes
-
65.6% No, I enjoy it
-
1% Other - I'll share below
Poll: How important is the ability to book a doctor’s appointment online?
Hi Neighbours
Here at The Doctors we would love to hear how you prefer to book your doctor’s appointments. With busy schedules, different people find different methods easier.
For some, online booking is very convenient, you can make an appointment anytime without needing to wait on the phone. Others still prefer calling the clinic and speaking to a real person, especially if they have specific questions about their visit.
Your feedback helps us understand what works best for our patients and how we can improve access to care.
