After contacting the Manawatu District Council, I was informed that this site and number are for rural places in the Manawatu which do not have a direct council. It is aimed at providing help with groceries or medication but it isn't for Palmerston North residents.
I am currently in communication with the Palmerston North City Council and have been informed that a similar site supporting for Palmerstonians is in progress but cannot accurately say when it will be up but it is hinted "Very Soon". I will keep you posted as soon as I hear anything.
Further to that I have enquired about what has been done with the information already submitted to MDC from Palmerstonians and have been told it was passed on back to the PNCC.
I have also asked PNCC if the info already submitted to MDC was able to be collated together in some way with the PNCC's upcoming support registration system, in any way people won't need to resubmit their applications and I am waiting to hear back on that.
So to recap, For those of us in Palmy,
1. Please do not apply to the MDC Support page
www.mdc.govt.nz... or contact 06 323 0000 this particular service is not for Palmerstonians.
2. Our Council is working on a similar system, it will be up very soon. I'll post here the moment I know.
3. If you have already applied to MDC, they sent your info back to PNCC in the hopes it can be integrated with PNCC support systems. I'm waiitng to hear back if that information can be used or if you need to reapply entirely when the PNCC COVID-19 Support site is up. I'll publish the info here as soon as I hear.

We absolutely know that being on the beach is wonderful. But... if you are going to the beach they are closed to vehicles. Leave your car in the car park and walk, remembering to keep distance between people not in your group.

But... if you are going to the beach they are closed to vehicles. Leave your car in the car park and walk, remembering to keep distance between people not in your group.
Why no cars? because if you get stuck (or worse) others need to help you - this puts them at risk. AND if you are walking your dog ensure it is on the leash, this will reduce the risk to others of contact.
I'm not sure why but I began creating some documents to help people with things that a lot of others would see as basic or simple and not needing direction.
So, I figure I'd test the waters.

I'm making a small document with large print and images stepping through how to order, (specifically for this one) from Countdown for Delivery.
Do you all think this will be useful or not?
Also I am taking suggestions on what other things you'd like to see a step by step guide for or think others may benefit from.
Thanks,
Mike

Palmerston North City Councillor Billy Meehan is practicing self-isolation after returning from a trip to Jordan and Italy over the weekend.
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has encouraged a stay of 14-days in self-isolation to ensure people who may have contracted COVID-19 don't pass the virus on to anyone else.
Do you think people will follow Meehan's lead and self-isolate?
Hi all,
I have been trying to tidy up some tax stuff, but the IRD website times out. (Both www.ird.govt.nz... and www.classic.ird.govt.nz...).
Has anyone been able to access the IRD site since last night?
Thanks,
Garry

Stay home. It WILL save lives.
Let’s all remember why we are taking such extreme measures.
Staying home won’t always be easy. But the evidence tells us this is the best way to save the lives of other New Zealanders.
Finding our routines
It will take some time to build up new daily routines. That’s to be expected. We all need to be gentle with ourselves, and accept that things could be difficult for a while as we learn to adjust.
Looking after ourselves and others
Don’t forget to take time to look after yourself, and also to check-in on others. Asking someone how they are feeling is a good way to connect and show that you care.
We all need to stick to the plan
For this to work, and the effort we are all making to be worth it, we all need to stick to the plan, all the time. No exceptions.
Don’t move around
The virus is spread by us. So we all need to avoid moving around as much as possible. If you do go out for exercise or to get essential supplies, stay local. This is incredibly important. Don’t move between different areas.
Thank you for doing your bit
A massive thank you to everyone for working so hard to slow the spread of COVID-19. Together, we can and will save lives.
