Ryman’s belief in this standard hasn’t changed. We put our residents first, ensuring they are connected to caring, vibrant communities. Ultimately, that’s what makes the Ryman difference.

I will guide you through it all. We'll try to finish our designs at the meetup and you get to take your creation home.

Jefferson Chapple of Flagship Life Skills presents Conscious Connected Breathing.
Venue; Community Hall, 2 Alnwick St (next door to Town Hall), Warkworth.
Open at 6.45pm for a 7pm start. $5 contribution at the door – Harmony Circle is non-profit.
Since 1982 I have been training people in six distinct self-management skills.
I will introduce you to, arguably, the most important skill of all, proper natural BREATHING, known as Conscious Connected Breathing.
Most people have unconscious modifications in their breathing patterns, which means that one of their most basic life pulses will be running at less than optimal.
The effects on their health and well-being have to be significant.
You will be shown the simple characteristics of disturbed and natural breathing patterns, and we will do a little bit of practice.
My intention is you will have enough information to decide whether CCB training will be part of your remaining journey.
One-off trial breathing sessions are not a good idea, so attendees will be in a draw for a complimentary obstacle-removal session of an hour or less.
I will explain what is involved to that lucky person on the night.
To chat to Jefferson about all that he offers contact him on 027 525 0035

Six doesn’t live on the streets any more but she hasn’t forgotten how if feels to fall. To find yourself without a roof, no corner of the world to call your own. She wanted to make sure other people understood what it’s like so she started a community paper about homelessness from the inside.
In The K’Rd Chronicles, we take to the streets of inner city Auckland and meet the people from Six’s world. Join Stuff over the next 8 weeks, as winter sets in, to learn about their struggle to change their lives … and to stay alive.

Congratulations to Jo Norgrove who received a Certificate of Achievement for her services to Coastguard and Search and Rescue.
Auckland Coastguard was awarded a Certificate of Achievement for Operational Activity for their involvement in the rescue of a badly injured yachtsman near Waiheke Island in March last year.
Coastguard Auckland volunteers Chris Griggs and Lynne Jacobsen received the award on behalf of the rest of the unit at the awards ceremony held in Wellington.
Griggs says it was an honour to accept the award on behalf of the unit.
“This rescue was a real team effort,” says Griggs. “We had no idea of the severity of the man’s injuries at first but once on scene we worked hard to bring the situation under control and provide as much comfort and pain relief as possible.”
On the night of the rescue, the Coastguard Auckland unit responded to the yachtsman ’s distress call who was badly burned after being engulfed in flames on board his vessel. Coastguard Auckland unit vessels, ASB Rescue and Li on Foundation Rescue, were tasked to locate and assist the casualty and then to transfer the yachtsman to the nearest land point where an ambulance and the Westpac Rescue Helicopter were waiting.
Griggs boarded the yacht to find the man sitting in the shower under the running water in an attempt to ease the discomfort from his burns. “The fire had caused significant burns to his arms, h ands and lower body. He had done the right thing by sitting under the cold water but in doing so had started to go hypothermic and was in immense pain,” says Griggs.
Once on board Lion Foundation Rescue, the man was carefully transferred to emergency services waiting onshore.
The judges said the Coastguard volunteers used their skills in a “highly stressful situation” where time was of the essence. By preventing further injury to the victim , the volunteers improved his chances of survival and recovery.
