I have recently launched the Pakuranga COVID-19 Connection Plan.

As part of the plan - we need Street Captains in every street across Pakuranga who are willing to connect with everyone who lives in their street and be the point of contact for those who might need assistance, and helping to co-ordinate assistance whether that is doing the shopping for those who can’t leave home or just simply giving those who are lonely a regular call.


There might already be a Neighbourhood Support Group in your street - in which case your lead might like to register as the 'Street Captain' - or this might be a great opportunity to reignite your NSG.

If you can be a Street Captain in your street - please fill out the form at the link below.

COVID-19 is going to be a challenge for us all - but if we get together and support our neighbours and the vulnerable, together we will get through it!

A Time For Refection

Bruce from Pakuranga

My Grandparents told me about the Spanish Flu, also known as the Swain Flu of 1918 and my Grandmother Nana Powley told me stories of people gargling "J's cleaning fluid" because thousands of people were dying in NZ.

My Grandparents told me about the Spanish Flu, also known as the Swain Flu of 1918 and my Grandmother Nana Powley told me stories of people gargling "J's cleaning fluid" because thousands of people were dying in NZ.
My Parents told me about the Polio virus of the 1930 -40's and as a kid they closed schools and my mother had to do swimming lessons in a heated pool to cure polio which worked and now we have the "Corona Virus".
If we look at each of these viruses and how other countries have been affected.
New Zealand is one lucky country!

Went to Marina Thai in Half Moon Bay today for lunch and was VERY heartened by their approach to containing Covid 19.  Hand sanitiser available, names and addresses taken AND cutlery wrapped in plastic.
Plus the food was awesome of course :)

Staying Calm, Being Proactive

Julie from Howick

Fear puts us at risk just as much as the Coronavirus. Being constantly fearful creates prolonged exposure to stress hormones, which weakens our immune systems and make us more vulnerable to the very thing we are stressed about.

Being constantly fearful creates prolonged exposure to stress hormones, which weakens our immune systems and make us more vulnerable to the very thing we are stressed about. A more proactive approach is to nourish our bodies with hydration, healthy food, exercise, sleep, and fresh air to support our immune systems; be extra vigilant with hygiene to protect ourselves and others; and be aware of the situation without being constantly focussed on it 24/7. We need to give ourselves time to de-stress instead of constantly being in distress. The Coronavirus will not last forever; nothing does. We can choose to pull together as a community, make sure everyone’s needs are met (especially our more vulnerable community members), and remember we are all in this together. Our strength lies in responding with compassion, rather than reacting with fear.

URGENT!

Animals need you! We currently have 921 animals looking for a home across the country. During these unsettling times we want to ensure adoptions don’t slow down and we can find our animals in need the loving families they deserve.

From tomorrow, we are reducing adoption fees for all animals across the country:

• Puppies and kittens have a $99 adoption fee,

• Adult dogs and cats have a $50 adoption fee,

• Small animals such as guinea pigs and rabbits have a $25 adoption fee

• Adoption fees for other animals are available on request.

Adopting an animal will allow centres to continue to provide excellent care and comfort for animals in need, while helping SPCA during this uncertain time. With families likely to be spending lots of time at home, now is an ideal time to adopt.

We are taking all the necessary cleaning and hygiene protocols across all our Centres. Centres will be practicing social distancing, which may mean visitors could be asked to wait in their vehicles before being welcomed into their local centre – please do only visit our centre if you are looking at adopting an animal.

Please SPREAD THE WORD!
For more information on Covid-19 and animals visit our website here: www.spca.nz...

Hi neighbours, some cafes are temporarily banning the use of reusable coffee cups - or 'keep cups' - because of the coronavirus.

Has your local stopped accepting reusable cups?
