The competition was stiff and as usual, went along with a lot of bantering and laughs. Some of our staff as well as our Manager, Bruce Cullington joined with great enthusiasm much to the delight of the Residents. A marvellous afternoon, to be repeated next year for sure.

**** HEALTH AND WELLNESS – FOR YOUR BODY AND PROTECTION OF THE ENVIRONMENT ****

Tina from Wattle Downs

Kia Ora everyone.

Late last year I had a major operation and I realised the importance of not only what we eat and put inside our body but also the importance of the cleaning products that we use and inhale which get into our system. I don’t know about you, but whenever I open up a packet of washing powder I start sneezing and when cleaning in an enclosed area the fumes of our cleaning products are really strong. Then a good friend introduced me to a company who specialise in natural and organic products for adults, children and pets - ranging from cleaning and laundry, bath and body, food & weight loss, vitamins & supplements, dental care, skin & hair care, medicine and home products. Now, my friends & family know that I am a cautious person, so I did extensive research on this company and it all came up roses. So I started using the products myself to see what they are like. OMG what a life changer! These products are awesome, they are concentrated so last longer, my house feels cleaner and fresher with no nasty fumes and I now feel healthier. I order online once a month so my weekly grocery shopping is easier, quicker and costs less. This company has been in operation for nearly 40 years, the products are delivered directly to the customer with no middle man. These products have no chlorine bleach, ammonia, harsh chemicals, formaldehye or abrasives – they are made from effective & naturally derived ingredients – ideal for sufferers of skin irritations. All you need to do is buy your cleaning products once a month yourself and/or create a part time business for yourself by helping your friends and family live healthier and protect our environment. These products are available in many countries including New Zealand, USA and Australia. I am just an ordinary working woman who lives in Auckland, New Zealand, looking after my family and want to pass on these amazing products to those I love and care for. For more information PM me or comment on this post and I will get back in touch with you. (Sorry about the long post but I am excited about this Company). ): ):
