The number of Kiwis with dementia is expected to triple in the coming years. Nearly every Kiwi knows someone with dementia. That is a lot of us.
Alzheimers NZ’s Dementia Friends programme aims to make NZ a more supportive, inclusive and understanding place for people living with dementia. It only takes 20 minutes to become a Dementia Friend.
The good news is you can help people with dementia to live well. Even in the smallest of actions help. Learn more about how you can help.

Along with landline phones and bar soap, top sheets are allegedly an "endangered species".
It's a topic of discussion that crops up every year or so and in some places, using a top sheet when you make your bed is almost unheard of. What's your preference?

As part of the programme, presented by Te Pūtahi and supported by Resene, three inner-city school buildings will open their doors for one day only.
From Japanese-influenced timber architecture and a sky playground to a dining hall steeped in tradition, these buildings are engaging examples of how design impacts the students’ experiences at school.
The programme kicks off on Sunday 30 June with The Cathedral Grammar Junior School and is followed by two other school buildings opening in the weeks that follow: the stunning heritage building, Christ’s College Memorial Dining Hall (4 August); and Ao Tawhiti, Christchurch’s only vertical school (7 September).

This World Refugee Day, we challenge everyone in New Zealand to join together and take a step to make a difference.
You can take part in the #StepWithRefugees campaign, where participants will collectively walk, run and cycle 1 billion miles - the distance refugees cover each year to reach safety, by adding your steps here: stepwithrefugees.org...
Another option is to volunteer with the New Zealand Red Cross as a Refugee Support Volunteer. Volunteers help families start again, while teaching them about New Zealand culture and connecting them with people from the community.
For anyone based in the Wairarapa, Masterton Neighbourhood Support has a programme called 'WeConnect' that matches new residents from diverse backgrounds including refugees to a local buddy. If you're interested in volunteering or supporting the programme in other ways you can email Masterton Neighbourhood Support Area Coordinator, Cathy Cameron, at: cathy@connectingcommunities.org.nz
For some, gardening in New Zealand - literally putting down roots - is a journey of a thousand miles (or more).

"I mean, I ate heavy cream I think 10 weeks past date," says Nash, "and then meat sometimes a good month past its date. It didn't smell bad. Rinse it off, good to go."
It was all part of his year-long experiment to test the limits on food that had passed its expiration date.

My sons are off to Australia with their Shirley Boys High cricket team in September and I am making them raise half the cost of their trip.
$10 per box.
We can deliver 6 boxes or more for free within the Chch area (at a time that suits)
My son's have also made a splitter box to help split the kindling if you want and they are selling these for $10.
Photo 3 shows the splitter block and the last photo shows how much kindling you get if you split just one $10 box.
Kindling can also be picked up from either Burwood or Harewood (Near Bishopdale)
For any elderly people living in the Brighton area (or nearish to Burwood rd) we will happily deliver a single box if that is all you need as we have had a few elderly men and woman whom aren't able to get out and don't require 6 boxes. Would rather drop a box off to you than you be cold.
They have sold a lot to very happy people but still have boxes left.

It found widespread acceptance of the idea: More than half the parents said they would loan money interest-free and only 38 per cent would expect it to be paid back.
