I have been involved in the reforming of the Toastmaster club in Tokoroa as it has so many benefits to the community. People mostly start with Toastmasters to gain confidence speaking, but then they find that it is the ultimate interactive entertainment, since speakers topics can be about anything under the sun, I have heard about hobbies, interests and epic stories. We also have loads of fun with our word of the night and impromptu speaking segment, which can be really good practice thinking on your feet. We meet fortnightly on Thursday night 7pm at Amisfeild school library, Moffat road, we are meeting this Thursday night, I am really excited and looking forward to seeing you all there the more the merrier. For more information we have a very active facebook page Tokoroa Forestlands Toastmasters or I can be contacted on 022 3534654.
Thank you Tokoroa.

Do you have an area of blackberry or broom that needs tidying up? Or any other undesirables on your property? We have 2 lovely goats that need new homes. Very friendly. Great with horses, cows, chickens, dogs, cats and children. They are frightened of cars so definitely not suited to the roadside. … View moreDo you have an area of blackberry or broom that needs tidying up? Or any other undesirables on your property? We have 2 lovely goats that need new homes. Very friendly. Great with horses, cows, chickens, dogs, cats and children. They are frightened of cars so definitely not suited to the roadside. This is an urgent rehome as we've run out of feed. They are brother and sister, two years old. Zeus is a whether and Cora is cycling ready for breeding.

Great example of Tokoroa raising kids right. Well done to these two Tainui Full Primary School students.

It is important to have a diagnosis, to ensure nothing else is causing the symptoms. Your GP should be involved.
A common sign could be confusion about the time of day and what is appropriate for that time. They may for example get up and dressed for work at 2am, which not only disrupts their sleep, but that of the person caring for them.
A strategy that may help with this is to use visual cues to re-orientate to time. E.g. point out that it is dark outside or show them a clock and explain that it is 2AM. Offer a cup of tea and a snack, this may allow time for the cues to register and often they will hop back into bed without resistance.
It is important to try not to argue with someone with dementia, which is certainly easier said than done, but remembering it will only escalate the situation may help!
