Long or strong, get gone

The Team from Ministry of Civil Defence & Emergency Management

All of New Zealand’s coast line is at risk of tsunami.
Knowing the right immediate action to take can save lives and prevent injury. If you are near the coast and feel a strong earthquake that makes it hard to stand up, or a rolling earthquake that lasts longer than a minute, move immediately to high ground, or as far inland as possible.
The earthquake is your first warning, tsunami waves can arrive within minutes. Do not wait for official advice or warning systems.
Contact your local civil defence group for tsunami zone maps and plan your route today. www.civildefence.govt.nz...
Talk to your neighbours about where you will go, and who might need your help.

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...

Here’s to starting 2026 waking up refreshed, because mornings should feel amazing!
