The Counties Manukau region is currently experiencing high volumes of people going to hospital Emergency Departments which is causing long wait times.

The number of people coming to the ED at Middlemore Hospital for non-emergencies is rising and we need our communities support to keep the Emergency Department free for those who need it most.

ED’s are there primarily to treat those whose condition threatens their life or limb.

Unless someone is experiencing an emergency, we are asking them to visit their local GP or Urgent Care clinic.
This will enable our busy ED staff to focus their time and resources on patients who have life threatening emergencies.

Help us to help you, your friends, your whaanau and our community.

Let’s keep the ED Free!

Hi there,
Our Art Development courses are beginning again for our local arts community this week. A few spaces left for age 9 through to adults.
Come and join us and learn how to do that lovely drawing or painting for yourself or that special someone in your life. (Xmas is just around the corner!) Or try your hand at clay work or Sculpture for a change. You can research your own themes/ideas and work at your own pace to get them done. Your tutor will explain the techniques you will need and encourage you to explore different media along the way.
Hope to hear from you.

The weird and wonderful things about online trading

The Team from Community News

Hi Auckland,

What was your best purchase on an online marketplace, like Trade Me or Neighbourly?

Hi Auckland,

What was your best purchase on an online marketplace, like Trade Me or Neighbourly?

A 1950s aircraft fuselage could be yours after a Waiuku resident listed their "old warbird" on Trade Me.

The Royal New Zealand Bristol Freighter flew as part of the Royal New Zealand Air Force during the Vietnam War. It was then purchased and shipped to Whenuapai-Ardmore in 1978 and then sold on to a Waiuku local. The sellers purchased the land at a later date, and thus the plane.

The listing starts at $18,000 and at time of publishing, has been added to almost 900 users' watchlists.
