NIGHT LIGHTS GARDEN WALK
THIS WEEKEND!
Come along TONIGHT (Frid 11th) & TOMORROW NIGHT (SAT 12th) for a magical walk through one of the most unique garden experiences you'll see!
Meadowcroft Garden (722 Otaki Gorge Road) will be open to the public from 7pm – last entry 9.30pm. $15pp and $5 for children under 12 years. (Cash only please).
Off road parking will be available
After fantastic feedback in 2024, Neil and Avis MacInnes are again opening their special garden at night. Discreet lighting brings the garden alive after dark and provides an opportunity to see another side of this unique garden - and to also raise funds for the Te Horo Hall renovations. The garden is usually only opened at night to friends and family, so this is a special opportunity, not to be missed.
Please note:
Due to water features and reduced lighting the garden is not suitable for young children, and no pets are allowed. Special care is required as there are steps, sloping pathways and ponds. Every effort has been made by the owners to ensure the garden and car parks safety. Both are entered at visitors own risk.
THANKYOU NEIL & AVIS - and the Mansell family for providing parking in their paddock! 🤩🤩

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
