For the past two months, there’s been a huge demand for food parcels from local charities around the country. Find out what we’ve been doing behind the scenes to support these charities who are helping New Zealanders get back on their feet.
(PS – we want to say a special ‘thank you’ to all of you who have made a donation at your local store. Your generous support is helping keep New Zealanders fed.)
During this time of COVID-19, it’s important we remember the different signs of stroke and that stroke is always a medical emergency.
One New Zealander every hour experiences stroke. But if you think F.A.S.T. you could save someone’s life and give them the best chance of recovery.

F - Face - Is it drooping on one side?

S - Speech - Is it mixed up, slurred or lost?

Think F.A.S.T., act fast, and keep looking out for each other.
Thank you, from the Stroke Foundation of New Zealand.
Hi Neighhours,

It's been a tough last few weeks, right? When life gets hard and the world gets scary, it's our loved ones we turn to for support.
But this extraordinary coronavirus pandemic is different. Many of us can't see our most special friends and whānau because we want to keep them safe, and we want to get through this as a nation by following social distancing and Covid-19 Alert Level 3 rules.
While thousands of people are returning to work, visiting friends and family outside of your bubble may still be off the cards for some time longer.
Do you have a message for someone you can't see in person? A shout out to a sibling or best friend? A much-loved and missed grandparent? A new baby you need to virtually cuddle?
Level 3 Love Letters is an opportunity to share a video message for a loved one on Stuff.
You can upload your video here so we can share it with them and New Zealand

While we went back to work today, we know many of you are still confined to your bubbles, so our crew were keen to do something fun for those in their own neighbourhoods.
We've planted ICON logos near our homes for you to hunt out on your daily walks (see example below). If you find one, take a photo of yourself with it for proof and DM it to us (via facebook - Icon Construction + Renovation). If you're first, you'll win a $25 voucher for SOS Cafe to support a local establishment of your choice.
We've hidden them (sort of) near parks, beaches, places of activity or carparks, mainly, in the following suburbs;
▪️East End
▪️Vogeltown
▪️Frankleigh Park
▪️Westown
▪️Ngamotu
▪️Highlands Park and
▪️Inglewood (High School end)
We'll release a clue a day for each different spot - unless someone finds it first, of course. If you know someone in one of the neighbourhoods above, let them know! Happy hunting. 👀✌️
If COVID-19 means you’ve been using more power, or if it’s affected your income, talk to your power company to check you’re on the best plan.
Find more advice and support at the Electricity Authority’s website.
Talk, Check, see if you can save.
