We at the Waimarama Community Gardens have quite a few old tyres to dispose of. Is there anyone in our community who could recycle them into something else. I seem to remember seeing someone who makes shoes from them - somewhere, maybe not in Nelson.

“I would like to nominate and THANK our great neighbour's living at Viv Davie Martin Drive for their creativity and huge effort during lock down. They lifted all our spirits with their daily Teddy bear reenactment on how to keep busy. Each day people came to see what Teddy bear was up to. With keen interest kids in our neighbourhood even gave Teddy a proper name...meet Vincent LOL! It's through times like this that such acts of goodness should be acknowledged and the memories they hold forever treasured. A selected few photos of Vincent's daily lockdown activities "thanks Vincent :)"

Nelson Mayor Rachel Reese, Tasman Mayor Tim King, and Nelson MP Nick Smith have put forward the idea that the main road through Saxton Field be named “Kerry Marshall Drive” after the late mayor - whose memorial service was held at Nelson College at the end of July.

Chef Phil Hazeldine's six pukeko dishes were a surprise hit at Nelson Marlborough Fish & Game's annual game bird night at Club Waimea. Have you tried pukeko? Would you give it a whirl?

The flag, measuring 3.6m by 1.8m, is flown most days from the tower along with the smaller Nelson city and cathedral flags.
Because of its large size and exposure to the weather, the New Zealand flag only lasts about 100 days before it starts ripping.

All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From paying it forward in line at a cafe to giving flowers to a neighbour ‘just because’ - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food bank, build a free community library for your street, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.
This month’s theme also coincides with Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is coming up on September 1st.
Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:
