Thinking hats on people - HOW CAN YOU HELP REDUCE WASTE?
.... perhaps someone could sew up re useable bags for use at the green grocers .... maybe even a purpose built facility out at the Waste Transfer Station that could house the Menzshed and all its amazing equipment, and the Feilding Repair CAFE so it could operate more regularly ... or even a business or someone with space setting up the Terracycle New Zealand recycling system - many ways to do something....

📣 Applications for the ‘Waste Not Want Not’ fund are open now!
🗑️Do you have a clever idea for reducing waste? ♻️How about a project that promotes reducing our waste or consumption? 🍃What about a strategy for businesses to minimise their waste?

Then check out the Waste Not Want Not fund!
Waste Not Want Not fund is the ultimate opportunity for anyone with a unique project or idea to minimise waste. This fund is dedicated to supporting practical sustainability initiatives related to waste minimisation.
You can apply for the fund and make a difference at www.mdc.govt.nz....
Three categories of funding are available: Community, Business Waste Reduction, and Innovation.
📆 You have until Monday the 31st of July to apply!
Waste Not Want Not fund is funded as part of the Waste Levy fees paid by waste disposal operators to the Ministry for the Environment, which is then allocated to local Councils to administer.

Hi neighbours,

Half-price fares for all on Horizons’ buses end on July 1, but will remain for passengers aged 13 to 24 years and for community service cardholders.

For many adults, fares would return to full price, but for those in the target age group and with community service cards, half-price fares would still be available, and children aged 12 and under would travel for free.

Has the discount enticed you to use the buses more often?
