Rotary Tawa had the pleasure of visiting Life Flight Wellington earlier this weekโ€”and what an inspiring experience it was!

Together with Rotary Karori and other clubs from across Wellington, we got a firsthand look at the incredible, lifesaving work the Life Flight crew does every day.

Did you know that Rotary was one of Life Flightโ€™s early supporters?
In early 2023, the Rotary District 9940 Childrenโ€™s Health Trust began discussions with the Life Flight Trust about how we could support their mission. That conversation led to a bold commitment: Rotary would raise $303,000 to help fund their vital work.

2 years in, and thanks to the generosity of many people and the dedication of clubs across our district, weโ€™re proud to say that weโ€™re already one-third of the way there!

This is a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we come together for a cause that truly matters. Letโ€™s keep the momentum going!

If you want to know more about Life Flight and how to donate, visit their website:

www.lifeflight.org.nz...

Ever wondered what itโ€™s like to be a Rotarian?
If youโ€™re passionate about making a difference in your community, meeting incredible people and having fun at events like this, then Rotary might be just the place for you.

Scam alert - Nationwide

The Team from New Zealand Police

Real Police officers are warning Kiwis to be vigilant of cold callers posing as Police officers, as a pesky scam rears its head.

Real Police officers are warning Kiwis to be vigilant of cold callers posing as Police officers, as a pesky scam rears its head.
In the past year, Police have worked quickly to warn the public as these scam calls emerged.

Waitematฤ CIBโ€™s acting Detective Senior Sergeant Ben Bergin says, โ€œunsuspecting victims are essentially being called out of the blue under a ruseโ€.
โ€œThe story changes slightly, but it will usually involve some sort of investigation and this โ€˜officerโ€™ will report having located a valuable item of yours, such as a passport.
โ€œHe will need your help or ask for your personal information.
โ€œThe caller speaks with an English accent and provides a bogus ID number to the victim.โ€

If you receive a phone call such as this, Police advise the public to be extremely cautious.
Acting Detective Senior Sergeant Bergin says previous iterations of this scam has involved scammers asking people to withdraw cash as part of โ€˜an investigationโ€™ or handing over bank details.
Police made several arrests last year over the scam.
โ€œWe strongly advise that you hang up,โ€ he says.
โ€œFrom time-to-time, Police officers may contact you as part of their genuine duties.
โ€œIt can be a bit surprising to receive a call unexpectantly, so stop and think if you get a far-fetched story shared down the telephone line.โ€

In the past week, Police have received reports from Kiwis on both islands, including: Warkworth, Riverhead, Royal Oak, Ngaruawahia and in the Clutha and Queenstown-Lakes districts.
โ€œFortunately, at this stage we are not aware of any victims losing money,โ€ acting Detective Senior Sergeant Bergin says.
โ€œThose recipients have done the right thing and ended the call and reported it to the real Police.โ€
If you have received a similar call, please report this to Police online now or call 105.

๐—œ๐—บ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐˜๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜ ๐—ฎ๐—ฑ๐˜ƒ๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ ๐—ณ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—บ ๐—ก๐—ฒ๐˜„ ๐—ญ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ฎ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐—ฃ๐—ผ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ฐ๐—ฒ โคต๏ธ
๐Ÿš”Police will never ask for your bank details, pin numbers or banking log in.
๐Ÿš”Police do not offer prize money
๐Ÿš” Police will never ask you to go to a bank and withdraw your own cash
๐Ÿš” Stop and think: If the call seems off, hang up and call 105 to verify the officerโ€™s identity, or request a callback.
