A black (with some white) cat was hit about 9pm at junction of Cook Street and College Street Roundabout. It is definitely injured but ran (limping) from scene very quickly and disappeared.
We enquired with neighbours and searched for it with no result. Nearest house for it to run to was the big two-storey house opposite the pharmacy and dairy.
So sorry this happened, I hope the kitty and owner are reunited and can get the help it needs.

Hi Neighbours!

Have you heard about our Community Connects grants?

The grants help fund projects that promote the inclusion and contribution of older people in community life, and support communities to prepare for an ageing population.

The fund makes one-off grants of up to $15,000. The grants are open to any New Zealand council, community organisation, or registered non-profit organisation. Applications for our current funding round close on 9 October.

Our last funding round was a huge success and helped fund a range of different projects across the country, that had focuses like reducing loneliness and social isolation of older people, developing an age-friendly community plan and supporting people with dementia.

With the right planning and support, we can create environments where older people are valued, connected and able to participate in their community.

If you have an age-friendly project you are interested in getting funding for click here bit.ly...
Or if would like to learn more about how your community can become more age-friendly click here bit.ly...
