Help us prevent men's violence towards women
Saturday 25 November marks White Ribbon Day, an annual event drawing attention to men's violence towards women. New Zealanders are taking The Pledge and making a commitment to stand up, speak out - and act.
Have you watched our film Raise Our Men? Featuring interviews with nine Kiwi men, it demonstrates that change is possible when men are shown and supported to choose a different respectful path. You'll find clips on our website.

Homicide investigation - Hastings
Last night at around 10:30pm, police received reports of a disorder incident on Kiwi Lane in Hastings where a group of people were fighting.
Police were also advised that a man had been dropped off at the Emergency Department at Hastings Hospital and was in a critical condition from an assault.
The man has sadly died a short time later in hospital.
Police are now working to establish exactly what has occurred and the events leading up to this man’s death.
The community can expect to see an increased Police presence in the area as we carry out a scene examination and make further enquiries.
Police would ask anyone who was in the area at the time and saw or heard anything to get in touch with Police.
You can contact us either online or by calling 105 and quoting file number 250217/0218.
Join our seminar at Summerset Palms, Te Awa
Join us at our upcoming seminar on Tuesday 25 February, from 11 am at Summerset Palms in Te Awa.
Hear a daughter’s firsthand perspective on her parents’ journey, from the decision to move, right through to moving day. And the highs and lows in between. We’ll share learnings from Summerset residents on what they love about retirement village living and what they found challenging. We’ll also answer commonly asked questions, like “Can I bring my fur-baby?” or “Can my grandchildren swim in the pool?” These two are easy, yes!
A fun and informative session for any family considering a move.
Please RSVP to book your seat. Call Michele Ballantine-Wooley on 06 833 5852 or email teawa.sales@summerset.co.nz
