OUR LAST MONTHLY FUNDRAISER CAFE FOR THE YEAR!

Kate from Trentham

This HAS to be the cheapest cuppa in Upper Hutt - maybe Aotearoa/New Zealand? Where else can you get a percolated coffee or pot of tea with a slice of home baked cake or cheese and relish toastie for ONLY FOUR DOLLARS!! YES, only $4 and served with a smile! WHERE? UHBC's Community Centre, corner Fergusson Drive and Milton Street, Trentham on SATURDAY 5 DECEMBER between 10am and 12 noon. From 11am there'll be live music with Christmas carols - you can sing along if you like! We'll also have a Home Baking Table with items for sale. All our proceeds go to support the very worthwhile work of Circuit International, helping the poor and disadvantaged in Myanmar with some great projects. Check their website to see some of them.

There'll be a CAR BOOT SALE outside in the car park - only $15 and those proceeds also go to Circuit International. Phone 528-3454 to book a site.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.

John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
