Making the Jewel of the City shine

Online Content Publisher from Whangarei District Council

Members of the Youth Advisory Group will be out at different times of the day from this coming Monday 22 January until 29 January surveying people out and about on the Hatea Loop to find out what they think about it, what improvements they'd like to see and seeing just how many people are taking advantage of this great space.

The photo shows members of Jewel of the City survey team with photo boards at the Bascule carpark, also one of the proposed development sites they are seeking public feedback on.

Morning Aches Are Optional - Let’s Start the Year Sleeping Better

Marketing Manager from Beds4U - Whangarei

Hey neighbours,

Waking up with sore shoulders and stiff mornings? Here’s the plot twist - it might actually be your mattress (and pillow) letting you down.

It’s the perfect time to upgrade. New Year, New Bed! Our Boxing Day Sale is still on, so why not treat yourself to a mattress that actually supports you and helps you wake up refreshed? Side sleeper? Back sleeper? Tossing and turning? We’ve got tips and solutions for every kind of snoozer.

Don’t settle for mornings that hurt, your bed should work with you, not against you. Curious about how your mattress could be affecting your shoulders? Check out our blog: beds4u.co.nz...
