New connections
It was so good to catch up briefly with the lovely Lilly Auvaa. We first met Lilly when she joined us from Australia for the Samoa Business Network Business Trip in Samoa back in 2018. It was good to know that the connections she made then have helped her with her move and setting up her business in Samoa. She is now permanently based in Apia.

See contact details in the poster on how to get ahold of Lilly & her team.
Great to be introduced and meet Simei Kolio who runs a business in Australia called KoKo Samoa and is in Samoa to explore opportunities to give back & utilise Samoan resources.
Isn’t it wonderful to see our people going back home to the islands to create opportunities, not only for themselves but for Samoa?
This gets us excited and gives us so much confidence in opening up a Hub and basing ourselves in Samoa. Because of these connections and also creating a space where we can all come together, work together and support one another
Worst Xmas ever?
There's a a lot of planning that goes into Christmas day and sometimes things just don't go to plan. But it can be a good thing - a family mishap or hilarious memory that you can laugh about in Christmases to come.
Whether you burnt the dinner or were stranded at an airport...

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
