Mary from Paekakariki

Dear faithful MWC Supporters

Please could you pass this message on your FB pages or to friends. Much appreciated.
The Mulled Wine Concert on this Sunday 27 June WILL GO AHEAD with the reduced audience numbers - 100 max including the musicians and organisers! The chairs will be spaced - please remember to wear your mask and to sign in using the QR code at the door.

Extra pages will be available indoors for those who forget their phones.

Please come to support us as we need to meet the costs of the musicians' fees and expenses. Not to mention our costs of piano moving, piano tuning, publicity/posters, hall fees, advertising etc etc.

That beautiful hand made donation box will do a brief "tour" during the interval so please do remember to bring one of those notes - orange, blue. Green and even purple all very welcome

That would be very kind.

Stay safe

Mary

Six tips for improving security around your home

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

1) Improve outdoor lighting
Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.

2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.

3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.

4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.

5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.

6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property

Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.
