With so many of us spending more time at home due to the COVID-19 pandemic, many people’s energy bills are skyrocketing. But it doesn’t have to be that way.
Here are 5 simple, easy to implement ideas and tips for cutting down your domestic power bills to save yourself some cash.
Hi Neighbours, Imagine you were waiting for the promise of the Living Wage to be delivered, but instead got a 20pc pay cut. That's happened to staff employed by contractors to clean Auckland Council premises. Read the story below:
would anyone on here possibly have the end bit to this vacuum just lying about that they don't want/need or I could borrow till I find one?
I don't know what you call it but in second pic I've circled the part I need haha.

Thanks in advance!!
Hi Neighbours, From Saturday next week, outdoor water use will be banned, as water levels fall to 46 per cent due to ongoing drought. Do you think you can do your bit to use less water ? Read the story below:

Platelet-rich plasma injections promote and accelerate the healing process providing significant improvement in the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries.
Platelets are small, colourless, disk-shaped cell fragments lacking a nucleus that is found in blood and play an imperative role in clot formation. They also have antimicrobial properties that support healing, infection control and the release of growth factors. These growth factors orchestrate the vital biological processes required for healing. Most importantly, as it relates to healing, platelets also release numerous growth factors, including PDGF, TGF-β, VEGF, and SDF-1α, that have been shown to orchestrate the key biological processes, including angiogenesis, inflammation resolution and tissue regeneration.
Growth factors are necessary to initiate tissue repair at a wound site. Growth factors derived from platelets are responsible for soft tissue repair, bone regeneration, development of new blood vessels and stimulation of the wound healing process. The concentrated platelets we use may help optimise the conditions for healing.
Plasma is the fluid component of blood that contains water, vital proteins, salts, minerals, sugars, fats, hormones and vitamins. Recently, plasma has been found to carry beneficial anti-inflammatory proteins such as Interleukin-1 Receptor Antagonist and Alpha-2-Macroglobulin. These proteins are known to “shut off” mechanisms that lead to degeneration and catabolic inflammation in the body.
The concept behind the clinical use of these blood components is to harness the natural biological ability of a patient’s blood―primarily platelets―which may help optimise the conditions for healing, improve inflammatory response, control infection and promote angiogenesis.
Platelets facilitate healing through the release of many growth factors actively involved in this process. Thus, PRP offers the physician an alternative to popular treatments, such as steroid injections. Such treatments provide short-term relief by masking symptoms such as pain and inflammation that are the result of an injury, rather than addressing the cause of the injury directly through the repair of damaged tissue.
Stem cells are at the core of the tissue regeneration process. They are required to rebuild and repair damaged tissue at an injury site. Platelets release several growth factors, such as SDF-1α, that function to induce migration of stem cells to the damaged tissue during the healing process. PRP provides these growth factors in high concentrations.
The PRP procedure is considered a safe treatment.
A small amount of the patient’s blood is taken, just as a blood test would be performed. The blood is then spun in a centrifuge to separate and concentrate the platelets. We then analyse the PRP solution to make sure our patients are receiving the appropriate cellular concentration and cellular counts for their condition. This plasma highly concentrated with platelets, and other cells are then injected into the site of injury or tissue degeneration under ultrasound guidance with precise, advanced, minimally invasive techniques.
Dr. Matti believes each patient and injury is different. We do not support the use of PRP as a “one size fits all” treatment. This is because PRP utilises your own blood, and this means there are variations between patients. We can individualise PRP treatments depending on the patient and the conditions we are treating. We incorporate ultrasound guidance to inject PRP to the affected areas accurately.
Indications for PRP Injections
Osteoarthritis, usually mild to moderate forms.
Refractory tendinosis, Examples:
– tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)
– golfers elbow (medial epicondylitis)
– patellar tendinosis
– Achilles tendinitis
-Plantar fasciitis
-Shoulder pain due and Rotator cuff tears
After Care
PRP injections are designed to use platelets to trick your body into thinking that the affected area is injured, therefore triggering a regenerative response from your body. NSAID are hence stopped for 48 hours after the procedure.
Can be painful for up to 1 week, therefore often need regular pain relief.
Rest, ice and elevate limb for 48 hours.
Initially cease all activities for the first week but can resume normal day to day activities.
In the second week, can resume light exercises and progressively build back to normal exercise after 4 weeks.
Most patients see the most benefit, approximately 4-6 weeks post-injection.

At first, the teachers were a little shy about singing and dancing by themselves in their homes. However the response from our families was so positive, with lots of lovely comments, we were encouraged to keep going! It meant so much to our children and their families that they could see their teachers every day - even on the weekends. As all the teachers are together at Uplands Kindergarten in Level 3, we were able to sing and dance as a group and keep posting more songs, stories and Mother's Day activities.
