It fully replicates everyday life in a suburban neighbourhood within a safe, secure setting. They have the freedom to do what they like – within reason – retaining a sense of purpose and dignity.
We want to change how we care for older New Zealanders, particularly those living with dementia. Together as a community, we must set the bar higher. We have an opportunity to redefine aged care in New Zealand. Be part of a legacy.

Earlier this month, one of the owners of the store was working behind the counter when a man entered the store and demanded money.
He walked behind the counter to the cash register and took a large sum of money, but the owner very quickly managed to activate the anti-theft smoke canon and the offender fled the shop.
Seeing what happened, the members of the public chased the offender and caught him, holding him until Police arrived soon afterwards.
He was then arrested and taken into custody.
A 40-year-old man has been charged with theft and was due to appear in the Waitakere District Court last week.
The money taken was returned to the dairy owners (pictured on the left), who were very grateful to those who stepped in to help.
A great result and example of people going above and beyond to look out for people in their local community.

We'd love to hear about the great places you've discovered over your summer holidays, whether it's somewhere local or on a trip away. Did you come across a particularly amazing beach, camping ground, town, walk or scenic spot? What made it so special? Any activities or places to eat and drink you can recommend in the area would also be much appreciated. As usual, please include 'NFP' (not for publication) in your comment if you don't want it included in a travel article.
Cheers.

We had time in Southland with my partner's Mum where we enjoyed good food, wine, company, dog walks on the beautiful Estuary Boardwalk & relaxation.
We then drove up to Bannockburn where I caught up with my family for Christmas & my partner hung out with more of her family & shared some special time sprinkling her recently passed Stepdad's ashes.
We both enjoyed a night on my brother's vineyard (check it out here www.calvertvineyard.co.nz...) in 5 star airbnb accomodation - great company, wine & food. After a lovely lunch we drove back to Dunedin & enjoyed further relaxing, sunny days reading in the garden.

You’ll start out following Stewart Creek, then climb uphill and eventually reach a ridge. The undulating terrain and steep sections can be tough, but you’ll forget how tired you are when you glimpse those sweet views of Lake Wānaka, Lake Hāwea and the Southern Alps.
Getting there: The track start is just off the SH6 about a half-hour drive from Wānaka.
Want more? The Queenstown Hill walk is a local favourite, with stunning alpine views and a trail that can be completed in a few hours.

Cycling Action Network spokesman Patrick Morgan said biking had boomed in popularity since New Zealand went into lockdown in March, causing a bicycle shortage. Many of those buying bikes and e-bikes were older people rediscovering the hobby, he said.
Bike trainer and e-bike specialist Megan Page said one of the best things new cyclists and those returning to cycling could do was to train with a qualified Bike Ready instructor.

We’ve been dreaming of relaxing at this colourful retro Kāpiti bach which features in our January issue. It’s the perfect sanctuary for its Wellington owners, who find themselves unwinding as soon as they walk through its front gate. Where's your favourite place to unwind over the summer?
