We are delighted to introduce Chris Erikson and Lisa Hinchcliff who will jointly present
‘Fabulous Nails, Feet and Footwear’
CHRIS ERIKSON owns and operates Comfoot Footwear LTD - Chris started out in the back room of a podiatry clinic fitting shoes for people with problematic feet. The range started out with orthopaedic styles but over time the range has developed into more comfortable, everyday footwear with more styles. “We have developed our own styles to meet different types of foot conditions especially those with swollen and diabetic foot conditions. The challenge for us is to have nice looking shoes, whist accommodating various foot conditions that are safe and comfortable”. Comfoot Footwear does exactly that!
LISA HINCHCLIFF is a Registered Podiatrist with more than 25 years clinical experience.
Lisa studied podiatry in Wellington and has been in her own podiatry practice for most of her career. She has successfully established and manages two very busy podiatry clinics in Auckland. Lisa’s goal is to ensure her patients can run and walk in comfort. She enjoys dealing with all aspects of podiatry from Plantar Fascia pain, Verrucae, Ingrown toenails to Achilles tendonitis. Lisa’s favourite saying is “prevention is better than cure”.
All welcome and we look forward to seeing you there!
Certificate for one hour CPD can be offered to Health Professionals attending

⚠️ 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 ❤️
Who’s the Smarty-Pants in the Neighbourhood? Let’s Find Out!
I’m not alive, yet I grow with care.
I wear ornaments, lights, and sometimes a star to bear.
My evergreen presence fills the air, bringing joy to the hearts of those who prepare.
What am I?
