New Wellbeing Website
Did you know that the Kāpiti Wellbeing Collective website will be launched this coming week. Exciting, eh!
People from all over will be able to see what is on offer on the Kāpiti Coast for Wellbeing. So it will definitely be the place to have your information if you are a Wellbeing provider.
If you are already a member of the Collective please check the FB page for details of the website launch and the prizes on offer.
If you provide Wellbeing on the Kāpiti Coast, in any of its many forms, please check out FB@Kapitiwellbeingcollective and apply to join.
You can then read about the launch and how to list your services on the website.
PS. There is also a public group that anyone, anywhere can join - FB@KapitiWellbeing and the website will be announced there after the launch, so that you can have a read and find out what's available here in Kāpiti.
Also, many providers of wellbeing list their events and services on this public page.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
