Lap the Map for Diabetes
November is Diabetes Awareness Month, and New Zealand's Lions Clubs are calling all New Zealanders to help them "Lap the Map" for diabetes awareness. Can you help us walk a combined distance surpassing the perimeter of the NZ coastline (15,000km)
Our Lions Club will be hosting a family friendly walk of the New Brighton Pier on Saturday 16 November 2024 and you can join in the fun anytime between 10am and 2pm - don't worry you can do as many trips to the end of the Pier as you like. Your total km will all contribute to the ultimate goal.
We are not asking for money to participate but donations can be given if you wish.
Diabetes is a growing problem in New Zealand, so let's do what we can to prevent and research Diabetes and more importantly to raise awareness.
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?

After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
