Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, nationalities, ages, orientations and even genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.
There’s many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck where each attendee brings a dish from a country of their choice to coordinating a fundraiser that benefits refugees or our elderly there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their native language or ensuring local footpaths are accessible!
Don’t forget this month also coincides with Women’s Refugee Awareness Month and International Day of Friendship on July 30th - a United Nations day that promotes the role that friendship plays in promoting peace in many cultures.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re making your community more inclusive this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

Is anyone out there needing some odd jobs done for them? I have a sick bunny and am desperately needing to make some money to help pay for his treatment. I’m only working 4 days a week at the moment and He’s already hit over $500 in vet bills.

I have a sick bunny and am desperately needing to make some money to help pay for his treatment. I’m only working 4 days a week at the moment and He’s already hit over $500 in vet bills. We’re about to rack up roughly another $300+ next week when he goes for another lot of xrays etc to see if the antibiotics are working to shrink a 7cm abscess in his belly.
I can’t really help with garden stuff as I’m allergic to grass but I can help out with dishes, cleaning, cooking meals, walking dogs, I can wash your car etc if anyone needs a hand? I’m just desperate to make sure he gets the treatment he needs.
I have just sorted my bulbs and this is for a array of small mixed misc bulbs which may include daffodils, rolf fieldler, gladiolis, allium moly, muscari and sparaxis. Please note that these are small and are likely to take a few years to flower. I have more than is shown in the pictures.

A curious feature of the furniture market is that if you know where to look, you can often find better deals at independent retailers than big chain stores.
We’ve got freedom to choose what we stock, which is how we get some pretty exclusive, fabulous furniture that is so affordable.

We’ve got freedom to choose what we stock, which is how we get some pretty exclusive, fabulous furniture that is so affordable.
Founded 10 years ago, The Best Furniture Shop has gone from strength to strength. We don’t have a massive markup because we don’t have high overheads. That’s how we keep the prices down.
Filling The Best Furniture Shop’s large, warehouse-like store is a wide variety of quality furniture for every room of the house. Items exactly the same as found in big name stores but without the high mark-up.
For Christchurch shoppers, delivery is just $50 for as many items as will fit in the van.

DID YOU THINK FOR ONE MOMENT THAT THE SECTION MUST HAVE HAD A HOUSE AND THE PERSON THAT LIVED THERE MUST BE HOMELESS !!!
AND YOU STEAL MY BELONGINGS!!!!
If anyone saw anything please can they ring me 027 7243372
To remove these items would have taken 2 people and a ute or car and trailer, plus they would have had to come up the graded part of section and walk to other end to remove the water feature, piping and coconut matting.
None of these items were visible from the street.
I am gutted. I am hurt. I am upset.
Plea to the culputs,
PLEASE RETURN MY ITEMS. I WORKED HARD FOR THEM. MAN UP AND DO THE RIGHT THING. RING ME AND RETURN ITEMS.
Anna
Plea to neighbours in Augusta Street and Redcliffs, if you see anyone in street or area not of the area please notify police.

Climate change is the most critical issue of the moment, and has been described by our prime minister as her generation's "nuclear-free moment". Its impacts, regardless of your views on it, are only going to get greater.

Yet it is not part of our school curriculum.
Some experts say that has to change. It is such an existential threat that not to make it a requirement to teach children about climate change is doing them a great disservice, they say.
