Administration Professionals Day Celebration - 21 April @ 6pm
We would love administrators (including EA's, receptionists, finance and payroll staff) across Palmerston North and Manawatu to join us at The Verdict Cafe, to acknowledge their role and the value they add to the success of the organisations the work for. Does this sound like you? Or are you a manager who would like to acknowledge your administrator/s? We'd like you to come along.
The key note speaker will be Sharon Dagg who will speak on "Overcoming Adversity" and recently become the first woman amputee to complete the Coast-to-Coast multi-sport event and will inspire us to move ahead despite the challenges that come our way.
Drinks and hors d'oeuvres, fabulous food and great spot prize draws throughout the evening!
Great news! Ticket sales extended out to Sunday 18 April (limited to available capacity)!

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️

Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.
