Instead of encouraging people to be overly cautious during the silly season, we wanted to share our injury prevention tips in a more interesting way.
Based on the traditional Christmas song we all know and love, we created a video series featuring 12 weird and not so wonderful injuries we saw from last Christmas, and tips on how to avoid them!
Give our 12 Days of ACC Christmas video series a watch. From everyone at ACC we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and happy new year.

We have made a very rustic xmas tree from a pallet and cut out photo's of some of our current foster kittens and turned them into a xmas tree decoration.
We are calling it a 'KITTEN FOSTER XMAS TREE' AND WHEN YOU DONATE, YOU CAN DECORATE. WE ARE GOING TO SEE HOW MANY TIMES WE CAN DECORATE THE TREE. We have about 50 decorations (fosters) although I know we have over 100 in our care at the moment. 8 came into our care yesterday only, so maybe many more by tomorrow.
We require money donations (to cover vet bills as our last years December Vet bill was over $12,000 and January was over $20,000), OR kitten sachets OR kitty litter (you can buy small bags). We appreciate every single donation at this time.
Yesterday, I personally picked up a two stray kittens and unfortunately one did not make it (despite all our efforts at the vets), but I will plaster a smile on my face tomorrow and face the lovely community and ask for your help so we can get all these mumma and dada cats desexed so this does not happen again. I named him George and he is the wee kitten in the top of the photo below. He was sleeping in this photo but went down hill very quickly RIP wee George. Your short life was important and valued (estimated at 6 weeks).
The last three photo are off some of the foster kittens that we used for the decorations.
See you all tomorrow.

Please save the following seller graceleigh to get updates on 'new' salvaged items from us. Items range from windows, to doors, whiteboards, pinboards, toilets, showers, timber and much more.
One of our biggest interest items are our Pink Batts. If you have a small job on the go, or just want to insulate that man cave of a garage, they are perfect ! However they do sell quickly ! Especially with the new laws coming into place for insulation in rentals.
We even have some fencing and walkway avaialble ready for those "christmas reno projects"

The clock is ticking (and no, we're not referring to the Christmas countdown!) - single-use plastic bags will be out of circulation from July 1, 2019.
All retailers, ie not just supermarkets, will no longer be able to sell or give away single-use plastic shopping bags after this date. To read more, click here.
Do you support the single-use plastic bag ban? How will the ban affect your life?
Have you already adapted to a plastic bag-free life or will this mean big changes in your household? What are your tips and tricks for ensuring the ban doesn't cause havoc when you hit the shops?

The heated dispute was sparked by the decision on Wednesday of an Environment Canterbury (ECan)-appointed commissioner to approve Cloud Ocean Water's plans to extract water from a 186-metre deep bore at its Belfast bottling operation.
That decision, which locked members of the public and their opinions out of the consent process, enraged Christchurch mayor Lianne Dalziel and city councillor Vicki Buck.
But ECan's chairman says the criticism is "ill-informed" and "off-the-wall".
