A couple of years ago a friend of my wife lend her a Mountain Buggy 3 wheels stroller, green one, with shade cover. The thing is I always thought she gave her away and by the time we moved house (nearly year ago, September 2017) I went to Resource Recovery Park 25 Range Street, Ashburton and dumped there. Don’t know if was destroyed or not, may be it was put up for sale in the shop, hopefully. Is here when I must ask to any one please, that bought a green stroller Mountain Buggy from that place I will appreciate if you out there could sell it to me please. This stroller has a huge sentimental value for this lady and I just destroyed without any questions. I will appreciate any help or information to try to take it back with the owner. Thanks a lot everyone.

The Home Safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to avoid falls, sprains and strains while pulling those stubborn weeds. For example, when you’re gardening avoid heavy lifting and use long-handled tools so you’re not bending over for long periods. Steady yourself when bending and standing, no pesky weed is worth falling for!
A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.
Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.
Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.

We’re so grateful to all the generous sorts who’ve chipped in to get us here. So, let’s lose the gifts… and turn our big day into a celebration with the nation.
