This year Age Concern New Zealand want all New Zealanders to sign up as Age Concern Dignity Champions and stand up for the human rights of older Kiwis.
“There is no excuse for elder abuse, says Stephanie Clare, Age Concern New Zealand Chief Executive. I am appalled that we are still having to deal with cases each day where older people are taken advantage of.
“Just because someone is older it doesn’t mean they are less valuable, have less purpose or should lose basic human rights, the right to make their own choices and respect from those around them.
“Of the cases we see, 75% of alleged abusers are family members, either adult children or partners of adult children and that needs to stop!
“So come on Kiwis we all have a part to play. You can take a stand against ageism and join me by signing up today!” says Stephanie.
An Age Concern Dignity Champion pledges to:
• Reject stereotypes and focus on the uniqueness of every individual
• Speak up when they hear people speaking negatively about growing old
• Have the courage to question practices they feel are disrespectful to older people
• Not patronise older people
• Be patient, polite and friendly
• Have zero tolerance for abuse or neglect
• Build relationships – they combat isolation and loneliness by getting to know the older people in their lives.

The European Union will soon recommend members drop daylight saving hours in favour of staying on summer time throughout the year.
Would you like the same for Aotearoa? Let us know!

Hi all I realise the chances are slim but thought I would ask anyway, I am looking for a long term 4 or 5 bedroom rental property in the Taradale area for a family of 6, no pets, non smokers. Have good references. Thankyou
I'm getting fantastic results and would love to share how. Not only have I lost weight, but I feel much fitter and more energetic.
If you are worried about your health and want to make a change, please message me for information.

We've noticed a HUGE amount of wood, branches and part tree trunks all along Napier beach. Would be a good idea for those with chainsaws and trailers to pick up free firewood for next year and clean up the beach at the same time.
