Support for SETH!

Nic from Feilding

Come and show support for Seth!

A Feilding two-year-old is facing the prospect of living his early childhood on dialysis after a rare form of cancer cost him a kidney.

Seth Maats was diagnosed with Wilms tumour four months ago. Neither parent had been able to work with the demands of a six-person household, including Seth’s three siblings, as well as his health needs.

So far, treatment and travel had been Government-funded, but they remained concerned as to what the cost would be if their worst-case scenario was realised. The household is under great pressure with costs associated with looking after Seth. Neither parent has been able to work with the demands of a six-person household, including Seth’s three siblings, as well as his health needs.

A market day fundraiser to raise funds for Seth's family is at Manchester Street School this Saturday, May 1, between 9am and 1pm.

A givealittle page givealittle.co.nz... has also been set up for anyone wanting to donate.

The Rapid Relief Team rrtglobal.org... will be on-site to sell hamburgers, sausage sizzle and barista coffees to help raise funds. A great team of volunteers and donated food si there to Support SETH!

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
