Friends of Karori Cemetery - consulting on the Conservation Plan
The Friends' are currently being consulted on the Conservation Plan for Karori Cemetery and would love your feedback. We have the following questions and welcome your answers or any other comments you have:
- To what standard do you think the graves should be cleaned or restored, or should they be left to the families to look after?
- If Karori Cemetery was to become a heritage park, how do you imagine it should look in 50 years?
- Are there areas of the cemetery that should be left to slowly decay?
If you prefer, you can email your answers to: info@friendsofkaroricmetery.co.nz
Comments on this post will close on 31st May.

⚠️ 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 ❤️
