Are you waiting for a hip replacement?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

We're having a look at wait times and are keen to talk to someone who's on the list to get a hip replaced.

It's an issue that's recently been highlighted in Southland and Otago, with some people waiting up to 18 months.

But what's it like in Waikato? If you're happy to share your experience, please email news@waikatotimes.co.nz with hip replacement in the subject line.

Do you know of a local business doing good?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

A cyclone was expected to be the big test of housing aid a Te Awamutu construction firm sent to Vanuatu.

Now the family behind Outdoor Living Evolutions is waiting to hear if structures they helped with survived a 7.3 magnitude earthquake.

Do you know of a local business doing good? Tell us about it in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
