World Elder Abuse Awareness Day
As many as one in ten older people in New Zealand will experience some kind of elder abuse. The majority of cases will go unreported.
Elder abuse is not specific to any one gender, religion, ethnicity, or income group. It may happen at home, in residential care, or in hospitals. Most of the time family members are the abusers.
Connection is the best prevention when it comes to Elder Abuse.
If you or someone you know is experiencing Elder Abuse, please contact:

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
