Maintaining independence as we age
As we age, mobility and health issues can affect daily routines and independence. It’s natural to want to step in when a loved one faces challenges with tasks they once managed easily. However, instead of taking over completely, finding a balance that offers support while still encouraging independence is key.
Chris Sinclair, Ryman's Community Liaison Leader, shares helpful tips for families and caregivers on how to promote independence and support overall wellbeing.

Offering pet and house sitting via Pawshake
I am on the website called Pawshake as a house and pet sitter.
I offer dog walking, pet sitting and house sitting services. Especially now coming for Christmas and New Year, a lot of people go away but don't have reliable people to look after their homes or put their pets in kennels or catteries. I am very reliable, honest and will even clean your home while you are away so when you come back, you have a clean and fresh home with very happy pets to see you.
If anyone would like to request my services, please look at the 2 documents I have posted with this post.
Thanks.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
