CAMEO POP-IN CENTRE MONTHLY ACTIVITIES
Good morning!
Cameo has several regular groups who meet in our rooms in Mahara Place, Waikanae, and we are always pleased to see more ($2 per person koha gratefully accepted) -
Our "Let's Share Words" group has just started up again on Tuesdays at 1.00pm to share poetry, stories, reviews - all and everything literary - and our Thursday group of musicians have gone from strength to strength over the last few months -
And Friday Line Dancing is always hilarious -
And as always you are all welcome just to "pop in", share a cuppa (and if you are lucky, some delicious baking from the Good Ladies who Bake (not their real name but I think this one is nicer :) -
We are starting to build up an Information corner as well and would love some help adding to its resources.

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.
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
