Greytown fundraiser this Saturday (25 Feb)
Enjoy this weekend by combining both shopping and doing good for the cyclone-affected Hawke's Bay this weekend in Wairarapa.
This Saturday (25 Feb) Greytown is hosting ‘Day for the Bay’ and invites all to come along to support our northern neighbours.
Greytown businesses, services and hospitality venues have joined forces to put on a day of specials, offers and raffles with more than $10,000 in prizes! The aim is to raise much-needed cash for residents and rural communities who lost so much following Cyclone Gabrielle.
Organisers are encouraging all to come and support the ‘Day for the Bay’ this Saturday.
Also, there's plenty to do in Wairarapa this weekend.
Farmers Markets in Featherston, Carterton and Wairarapa have much to offer just wander around, soak up the rural vibe and take some treasures home with you.

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
