Eastern Bay Villages: Te Kokoru Manaakitanga
Kia ora neighbourly people
Eastrn Bay Villages is a new initiative by some of us to increase neighbourliness in our communities, and enable all seniors/kaumatua to live well in their own homes as they age. We have a meeting tomorrow and all are welcome to come and hear more.
10 – 12 Tues 14 November 2017
Whakatāne Hospital Maori Services Taneatua room*
An opportunity to hear about our plans and share your ideas.
Everyone is welcome. We hope to have someone from each of the many clubs and organisations we have spoken, to so they can share our progress with their members.
If you are coming, if possible, bring along a senior/kaumātua who might benefit from more social support.
RSVP to easternbayvillages@gmail.com or phone Ruth on 027 430 8149
If that date does not suit let us know. If enough people would prefer a weekend or evening gathering then we will arrange that too.
*To find the Taneatua room go down Garaway St, past the main hospital entrance to turn in at Gate 5. Follow the signs to the main carpark. Then take the path north, past the first building on the left to Maori Services.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
