Poll: Are uniform rules at schools sexist?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Many schools allow female students to wear earrings but male students aren't allowed to have an ear stud. Is it time to get rid of gender-based rules in regards to jewellery?

Live independently while your loved one is cared for in the same Ryman village.

A full life for Helen is one that is surrounded by family. When she first moved to the village, Helen’s husband John was being cared for elsewhere. Now that he is living at the same village, it brings Helen and her family so much happiness and reassurance.

“All the family cried when he moved in. They were so happy because it was such a beautiful thing to have him close by.”

Are you looking for a guest speaker for your group?
What about a Free discussion titled
All About Stress?

As a personal project, after 4 years of research, in 2019 I published a book titled ‘Stress Overload and You’. Available in our libraries. Just after that the covid pandemic arrived and everything shut down. The few seminars I had done on the subject to promote my book, were very well received.
Since then, I discovered that most people know what stress and anxiety feels like but they don’t know what stress actually is, or specifically what to do about it. So, I created 45 x 5-minute videos on a Facebook page, for those who were interested, outlining in simple terms, exactly what is happening. That is presently also being set up as a YouTube channel.
In light of the very stressful changes our communities have gone through and will continue to do so, today I would like to offer your group a free 90-minute discussion/ presentation, titled “All About Stress”, where I will explain, in simple terms, the latest science behind what is happening inside our human body when we experience a sense of stress at any level.
I have found, that in light of the huge increase in stress-related illnesses in our community, this information is simply not getting through, and yet is important for all of us, in order to help ourselves and our family members. That’s why, right now, I choose to pass it on.
There will be plenty of time for questions and plenty of excellent references.
As a speaker, offering this free service is my way of contributing to the welfare of our community.
If the subject is of interest to your group and community then please contact me at 92 Aka Aka Rd, RD3 Pukekohe, email at phillongtaylor@gmail.com or txt me on 021 0847 1980 for further details.
Thank you.

Phil A. Long-Taylor

Feedback.
• “If you hadn’t told me, I would never have known”.
• “Really interesting. Thank you, Phil”.
• “When you even show us how to get the scientific information ourselves, you are the real deal”.
• “That certainly explains a lot about my issues. Very empowering”.
• “Which begs the question. Why is our health system running 20 to 30 years behind the latest scientific discoveries”?
