Hi neighbours,

Are your knees giving you a hard time?

See how Peter Williams found help from using a NZ made relief cream.

After retiring from our TV screens after 40 years, veteran broadcaster Peter Williams, still gets up at 5am each weekday morning to prepare for his morning radio show.

Peter Williams explained, “Look, I’m 65. When I get up the body’s often a bit on the stiff side. “

Peter Williams claims, “Within 10 minutes, the pain was gone. I felt so much better. My body was nice and relaxed, and I was ready to go off and do my day’s work.”

“I’ve been using Relief Fx by Koru Nutrition. It’s New Zealand made, natural and best of all it works .

Guess what!!!

We are teaming up with My Vita Bag again to help raise funds for our Baby and Toddler Bundles team who are in need of storage cupboards and consumables to put in the bundles, such as wipes, nappies, breastpads, toothbrushes, nappy creams etc.

We are selling reusable fresh produce bags that come in a set of 2 large bags (25x30cm) and 2 small bags (20x25cm) for $13 with 35% of each purchase going straight to us!

These reusable bags are waste free, marine safe, machine washable and, best yet, they are breathable, which will help keep your produce fresher in the fridge.

We also have on offer a 20 pack of reusable stainless steel pegs (that won't rust!). These are $22 a pack with 32% going straight to us.

These reusable stainless steel pegs are little but extremely strong and will last a life time. They are soft on fabrics with no sharp edges and, best yet, they come in their own reusable bag made of sustainable materials.

If you would like to order these today, please give us a message to find out how.

Thank you for your support.
