Hi Neighbours,
Here's the latest from Don who's been in isolation for 14 days,
We welcome you back Don....
Hi Everyone,
Please share this message and my newsletter with your members and contacts

I hope you are all managing to keep safe and healthy during these stressing and difficult times.
During the last few weeks I have managed to get myself Isolated for fourteen days due to being a close contact from the Dress Smart place of interest on the 16th of last month, that was fun. NOT! However I have been back on the beat working with my Onehunga Policing team attending Covid19 related incidents reported to police.

Unfortunately, those involved in criminal activity are continuing as predicted, so please continue to be vigilant and look out for anything of concern. The 111 emergency phone number is the best number to call to notify police of all emergencies including all Covid related concerns.

Also, an update on mail theft.
Police have recently identified individuals involved in high volume mail theft from the Ellerslie and Onehunga areas. Further information will follow once the investigation has concluded.

Keep safe and be vigilant

Kind regards
Don

If you haven't already, you can grab yours here:

Whilst self-care is a bit of a buzz word, it is something we all need more of. You can't pour from an empty cup...but making time to fill that cup is a struggle for many of us (even during lockdown!). Part of this struggle is knowing what is appropriate self-care for your personality.

That’s why this workshop is all about shedding light on the introvert/extrovert dimension of personality; giving you the info and tips to tailor your self-care and social interactions to suit your personality, and learn how to thrive as an introvert!
