You can sign up as an individual, or as team, such as a workplace. Regardless, each person must raise $1000 or more to qualify for a free jump.

When you sign up you'll get to choose where you jump and which region you'd like your funds to go to - these don't have to be the same, they could be at opposite ends of the country.

If you don't know where you want to jump yet, that's absolutely fine. Your local Cancer Society team can talk you through your options and help you pick the jump site that's right for you.

Stop hesitating, go on, sign up now!

Get cosy with your whānau

EECA

Don't go old-school this winter and just throw on another jersey to beat the cold. You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.

Don't go old-school this winter and just throw on another jersey to beat the cold. You deserve to be truly comfortable in a warm, dry home without stressing about power bills.

Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.

And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

Check your eligibility, or check for your whānau, at www.warmerkiwihomes.govt.nz

Rising sea levels getting bigger each year

Bob from Vogeltown

It is time to start planning to counter the sea level rise, which is increasing faster and faster as years go by. If we do nothing, the whole Wellington harbour will overfill, inundating the city and the Hutt valley

It is time to start planning to counter the sea level rise, which is increasing faster and faster as years go by. If we do nothing, the whole Wellington harbour will overfill, inundating the city and the Hutt valley
I suggest designing a dam across the entrance, with 2 ship locks to allow access and departures. It could go between Breaker Bay and Pencarrow.
There must also be a powered pumped outflow over the dam from the inner harbour into the ocean to keep the inner harbour and its surroundings safe.

And yes, it will "cost a lot of money" but the cost of NOT doing it will be many times worse.

I’m finally back and getting ready to trap the remaining cats of the berhampore Colony.

We estimate around 40 cats and kittens that still need to be rescued.

What do we do these cats?
- Trap, desex, microchip, vaccinate and rehome the cats and kittens that can be.
- T’N’R, a few kittties are released and are cared for financially by us, and fed by one of our feeders.
- The cats who can’t be released or rehomed are put to sleep, as it’s the kindest option for them.

What we need from you?
- Pictures of cats to help us keep track of them
- Trappers (or people to check on traps)
- People who can transport cats
- Properties to trap on
- And of course fosterers

Please let me know if you have any questions,
Tia, Pōneke Ngeru Rescue
