HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop. The viruses are mostly transmitted in adolescence but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they’re young.
Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV in their lifetime. Immunisation can significantly reduce HPV-related harm. Protecting all children before they’re exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.
Free HPV immunisation at school or from your GP. For more info visit: www.health.govt.nz/hpv

Bring a can of food into your local Resene owned ColorShop and you can swap it for a Resene testpot*!
Every can of food you donate means you save on your testpot purchase (save up to $5.60 on an 80ml testpot) while also helping provide disadvantaged Kiwis with food parcels when they need them most.
We'll donate every item you bring in to The Salvation Army local foodbanks and other community foodbanks.
So start gathering up those cans and bring them into your local Resene owned ColorShop.

Riding a motorcycle or scooter inevitably carries more risk than driving a four-wheeled vehicle. And it turns out quite a lot of us have someone close to us who rides (in fact, 48% of Neighbourly members!)

And it turns out quite a lot of us have someone close to us who rides (in fact, 48% of Neighbourly members!)
If you worry about their safety, there is something you can do: encourage them to take Ride Forever coaching, provided (and heavily subsidised) by ACC. It's delivered by experts and it works, as Simon Gotlieb's story shows. Neighbourly members can book a FREE Ride Forever course before 31 March using promo code NEIGH18 over here.

Northland District Health Board is paid per unit of population.
Funds for water and sewerage subsidies and critically roading subsidies are paid on a deprivation index and population data.
For any number of reason thousands of people choose not to participate in census but this means we are missing out!
Missing out on critical funding we need to ensure that we can meet the basic needs of our community.
This is my person post to ask that we all compete the census and spread this important message so that everyone understand how critically important this is to everyone in our community.
Census date is 6 March. Thank you for reading and sharing on your networks. ☺
