Lavender Stick Deodorant - zero waste zero packaging zero aluminium 65g $13
These stick deodorants are made with real ingredients including: Bees Wax, Oils: Cocoa Butter, Coconut, Shae, Rice Bran, Diatemaceous Earth and Chitosan. Lavender Essential Oil.
Our other Stick Deodorants have different fragrances with Essential Oil Blends including: Lemongrass, Juniper, Thyme, Lavender and Rosemary. We have some storage jars available but you can get creative and probably find suitable containers you already have. The paper wraps work quite well - simply peel back the top and they will push up from the bottom of the packet. We have samples to demondstrate this that you can try.
These will be available at the Rotorua Home Show next weekend.

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

This month we’re celebrating the diverse array of people who call New Zealand home. Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, nationalities, ages, orientations and even genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.

There’s many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck where each attendee brings a dish from a country of their choice to coordinating a fundraiser that benefits refugees or our elderly there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their native language or ensuring local footpaths are accessible!

Don’t forget this month also coincides with Women’s Refugee Awareness Month and International Day of Friendship on July 30th - a United Nations day that promotes the role that friendship plays in promoting peace in many cultures.

Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re making your community more inclusive this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

HI neighbours,

Many of you may be wondering if this impacts you.

The South Waikato District Council have just put out the below statement.
"We can confirm from our infrastructure and maintenance department that there is no danger to South Waikato urban residents and their water supply.
“While there are concerns that the spill is travelling north into the Waikato River, SWDC can assure residents that our urban water comes from secure bores with the exception of the Blue Spring – which comes from the Waihou catchment and is not connected to the Waikato River,” said Assets Group Manager Ted Anderson.
“Our water goes through the process of microfiltration and UV disinfection. In addition, chlorine is added.”

There would continue to be constant monitoring of the risk, he said.
