The Minister for Seniors Tracey Martin has released the new strategy for our ageing population, Better Later Life – He Oranga Kaumātua 2019 to 2034.
Like the rest of the developed world, New Zealand has an ageing population. This means there are some things we must consider and prepare for as a country.
Better Later Life takes a fresh look at what is required to ensure New Zealand is a great place to age and achieve the vision of making sure older people lead valued, connecting and fulfilling lives.
The strategy's key areas for action will be used to guide the priorities of what needs to happen in our action plan.

Jo and Rachel talked about what's going on in their own backyards and suggested some edible crops you can sow and grow yourself. Jo gave a masterclass in planting tomatoes, the pair discussed peeing on lemon trees and keeping cats out of your vege beds, and Rachel talked to a Central Otago gardener who has to deal with extreme temperatures, extreme drought... and temperamental donkeys. You can also follow the conversation on Spotify and Stitcher. Let your friends know too!

Sometimes the emotional scars can be worse than the physical ones. Neither is okay. Learn to see the signs and seek help if you're in a toxic relationship.

The first of many shoe cleaning stations has been installed at the Glade Place entrance to Le Roy's Bush Reserve, with more to follow soon at other Le Roys entrances, Fern Glen Reserve and Kauri Glen Reserve.

These will become a more common site, as the Kaipātiki Local Board, Auckland Council and Pest Free Kaipātiki work to upgrade and re-open tracks that have been closed to prevent the spread of kauri dieback disease.
These stations include a built-in scrubber for shoes and a foot-operated spray (much easier to use than the hand-held bottles). There is also a seat if you need it, and a water spray for dog paws or bare feet.
Contaminated water and dirt will be collected in the trough under the station and pumped into the sewage system. However for maximum protection of our kauri trees, it is still recommended to clean your shoes/boots at home in the laundry sink prior to using the cleaning stations.
The summer is here! :D
There will be lots of fun for our children this summer! :D
Please contact us if you are interested! :D
