Money matters - get the most from your hard earned money
Learn a great way to spend, save, and budget wisely. We are pleased to be able to offer another free CAP budgeting course for people in South Wellington. The 3 sessions will put you in control of your money, whether you have a lot or a little.
Our previous course was a big success going by the reviews we got. There are no catches - we run the course because we believe people should get the most out of their income and remain debt free. It is totally confidential - only you can access your data.
The CAP budgeting course gives you use of a free spreadsheet that allows you to plan your spending for as long as you want to use it. Thousands of Kiwi's, as well as people in England, Australia, and Canada have benefitted from the course.
The next course runs for 3 sessions starting on Monday July 17th, at 7.30pm, then 24th July and 7th August. It is being held at St Hilda's, 311 The Parade.

⚠️ 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 ❤️
