Standing for Council 2022

Kevyn from Bell Block

New Plymouth is a great place to live and we are the beneficiaries of a wonderful legacy.

These must be protected and increased for the future.

I am standing for election in the Kaitake-Ngāmotu General Ward for the New Plymouth District Council and bring to the table qualifications, experience, understanding and commitment.

Alongside Degrees in Management and Business I also bring work experience and knowledge gained in a variety of occupations as a soldier, chef, minister, business owner, and executive director.

These have developed in me a disciplined approach to people and situations, an understanding of organisations, and the importance of outcomes while managing change. In all of these relationships teamwork is critical.

I believe and support that democracy must be local.

If democracy is not experienced as a reality by people like ourselves it is democracy in name only. The more decisions that are made locally the better as too much is being decided and driven at an ever-increasing pace by Central Government. Local individuals and communities are increasingly disempowered and marginalised.

I do look forward to meeting you. To this end I am going to make myself available at specific locations and times. These are shared on my Facebook Page - Kevyn J. Harris for NPDC.

Bowen Therapy, the gentle fascia release technique

Annemarie from Holistic Health Taranaki

Pain will put you into stress mode, into fight-or-flight. It tightens your muscles and locks your breathing.
No rest, repair or restore can happen when we are in fight-flight.
This is why Bowen Therapy is different from many modalities. It works with gentle moves, and most of the time, works below the pain threshold.

It helps to stimulate your body into repair and restore, and avoid further fight and flight.
The clinic is open throughout January, reach out to book an appointment or use the online booking link to find the best day and time for you💚
