Mothers Network Groups - Spaces available term 3

Sarah from Grenada Village

Mothers Network is a Wellington based organisation that supports mums through their motherhood journey, we have been operating for coming up to 40 years now. We run a couple of groups each term, in various areas of Wellington.

The groups are a safe, fully inclusive space to chat all things mum and beyond. We focus on the mother rather than the child in this space to support the woman behind their wonderful child/ren.

We currently have a few spaces available in the following groups, we would love for as many mums as possible to be able to attend one of our groups.

Our Northland Group is being run during the day and we provide free childcare for those that attend.

Location: St Anne's Church, Northland

Time and dates: 10am-12pm, Tues 9 Aug - Tues 13 Sept

Our CDB group is being run in the evening which will be helpful to those who find daytimes a struggle.

Location: Thistle Hall - Cuba Street

Time and Dates: 5.45pm-7.45pm, Thurs 11 August - Thurs 15 September

If you'd like more information or to register for a group please visit our webpage: www.mothersnetwork.org.nz...

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? ๐Ÿ›ป๐Ÿšจ๐Ÿš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

๐Ÿ’จ Wellington: Is the real summer finally here?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Itโ€™s the talk of the town (and every coffee queue): the Wellington "summer" has felt more like a very long, very damp spring! ๐ŸŒง๏ธ Weโ€™ve definitely had our fair share of grey skies and raincoats lately.

In fact, The Post reports that our "pretty average" summer has been tough on the local venues and events that usually thrive under the sun. But don't pack away the sunscreen just yet!

The good news? The next couple of weeks are looking a bit more "settled" (the Wellington word for "not a gale-force downpour"). With autumn officially here, now is the time to squeeze every last drop out of the season! โ˜€๏ธ

Any local hidden spots or activities youโ€™d recommend for a calm Wellington day? Drop them in the comments! ๐Ÿ‘‡

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, weโ€™re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature โ€” and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
