Hospice Fundraising Garden Party

Maureen from Hillsborough - Lepperton

A very special garden party, hosted in a delightful garden, with a menu of culinary delight and a variety of unique and exceptional auction items…

Funds raised from the evening will provide essential funds for Hospice Taranaki to deliver patients and their family/whanau with specialised palliative care.

Phone Rose 027 589 8771 - with any questions.

The support of the wonderful Sponsors has made this possible and we now need to sell as many tickets to this event as possible therefore we are relying on all you very generous people in Taranaki to come and join us for a fun evening!

On Arrival in the Tranquil Parklike Garden you will be greeted with a Glass of Bubbly from Fitzroy Liquor.

You can wander around the grounds at your leisure while listening to the live music from Midlife Crisis and sipping your free Gin Cocktail compliments of Juno Gin and tasting the deliciously special canapes from Delistar Catering.

You will then be invited into the fabulous marquee from Dobson’s Marque Hire. Here Jamie Phillips and his wonderful team will tease your tastebuds with 6 courses of his carefully prepared delectable morsels. During this time you will be entertained by our “Mystery Guest Speaker”.

We are fortunate to have the services of Peter McDonald as our MC and Auctioneer for the items that have been donated for auction with all proceeds to the Taranaki Hospice.

Tickets $120.00

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
