12/01/2025: WCC Waste Minimisation project
Forwarding on from WCC Waste Minimisation Team as a courtesy:
Kia ora All,
Happy New Year and hope everyone has had a good break! You may have heard of Love Food Hate Waste (LFHW), an organisation which encourages and educates kiwi's on how to reduce food waste and save money.
LFHW is running a campaign promoting meal planning to combat food waste. The campaign will run through the month of March and WCC will be promoting it via various avenues, including hopefully your library or community centre 😊.
We have access to free display kits which are ideal for community centres, libraries etc. Each kit contains meal planning steps, posters, an information sheet with the campaign background and ideas for display and details on how to submit photos to win a LFHW prize pack.
More information on the campaign can be found here: TAO Toolkit -The Food Critics - Do Better Meal Planning (1).pdf
Poster examples are also attached to this email.
If you were interested in receiving a kit, please let us know by Friday 17th January. The kits will then be distributed to the centres between 10-17th February.
Ngā mihi,
The Waste Minimisation team.
🧩😏 Riddle me this, Neighbours…
I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

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.
