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

What is Addictive Eaters Anonymous?

Addictive Eaters Anonymous (AEA) is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from addictive eating.

AEA has members who have suffered from anorexia, bulimia and binge eating. Many have been underweight, overweight or obese; others were people of average weight yet suffered with an obsession with food. Members may have used exercise and other substances to try and control their weight. Before coming to AEA, members found that they were powerless over food, and unable to stop the food obsession.
