International Week of Happiness at Work - Monday 20 to Friday 24 September
International Week of Happiness at Work is a holiday that’s all about bringing happiness back into the workplace. If work is part of our daily lives, then one of the best ways to live a happier life is through being happy at work.
Happiness in the workplace encourages a culture of positivity and inclusion, and this promotes job satisfaction for all employees. Supporting disability inclusion in the workplace supports all employees, and companies with strong disability inclusion programs have better access to talent and better employee retention.
Disability inclusion strengthens the workforce, supports diverse workplaces and builds morale and helps all employees do their best work.
Workbridge can support jobseekers and employers by providing a range of free employment support services for both job seekers and employers, individually tailored to suit every individual’s needs.

Founders Plantation Picnic, Saturday 4 May 11am - 2pm. Waimea Stream Reserve, Pembroke St, New Plymouth
New Plymouth Central Lions are hosting a family picnic and BBQ at the Founders Plantation.
The almost 2000 trees were planted in 1991 in a project organised by the Merrilands Lions Club (which no longer operates) to commemorate 150 years since the establishment of the colonial settlement of New Plymouth at Ngāmotu by surveyor Frederick Carrington in 1841.
Come and see the splendid Kauri, Kahikatea and Totaras after 30 years of development. Many families, businesses and groups were involved; the names are on the steel drums!
