Having Surgery ?
Being prepared for surgery helps reduce the stress for you and your caregiver.
Lagans Pharmacy can help you…..
Your surgeon will need to know about any medicines you are taking to safety plan your procedure. We can give you an official copy of your medicines chart listing all of your medicines, the dose and directions.
Leaving hospital you will want to get home to rest. Ask the hospital staff to fax us your prescription - we can have it ready for you . Get your free medicine schedule from us to remind you when each medicine is to be taken.
Remember to eat well and drink fluids, prioritize rest. Your body needs lots of support to help repair.
We can help boost your recovery with quality supplements tailored especially for you. Take before and after surgery.
And we can check and change wound dressings, until you see your doctor.
Lagans Mobility
If you need extra support with showering, reaching items, toileting, getting dressed or getting around. We have items available for rent or sale to help make the road to recovery smoother and dignified.
Lagans Wellness

Pulsed Electric Magnetic Field (PEMF) device to deliver healing magnetic energy, used in Europe, also used by elite athletes and the racing industry to promote faster healing.

Advice please, declined house insurance cover
Looking for advice please. Has anyone had any issues reinsuring their homes. Our current house insurance went up by 11.5%, so I decided to get another quote. At the end of a very long phone with Tower, they declined to insurance us, saying our property is a landslide risk. I'm on Wyndham Road in Pinehaven. While the house is up off the street, the house itself and backyard are on the flat part of our section. Now - in the interest of full disclosure - I'm going to have to tell our current insurer too. I've rung the Council to see if they've updated their hazards mapping - and they said the only update has been to the Pinehaven Overflow. Have lived in this house since 2003, and insurance has never been an issue till now. TIA

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.
We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
