South Auckland gym helps Heart Foundation

A South Auckland women's gym is backing the Heart Foundation this month.

Members of the Smash Fit gym will attempt to row 100 kilometres over eight hours to raise funds to buy a defibrillator for the Papakura community.

They will give the balance of the proceeds to the Heart Foundation.

The women were inspired by Mark Taylor who rowed for eight hours earlier this month, raising $95000 for the Heart Foundation.

Taylor has a neurological disorder affecting his mobility, vision and health.

His wife and one of his daughters are members of the gym.

“We think Mark is incredibly inspirational here at SMASH FIT - and we were hugely honoured when he asked us to help him reach his fundraising target of 100,000 dollars," said Smash Fit owner Emma Dunn.

Mark will be rowing alongside the gym members for some of the event and heart health is something close to home for the Kiwi.

“My family and friends have been impacted by heart disease and the health of our heart is something that we all need to take more seriously," Taylor said.

South Auckland residents can find out more about the planned southern motorway upgrade at information sessions starting on Saturday.

Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency will provide information on the SH1 Papakura to Drury South project at markets, sports grounds, service stations and shops.

The project includes a new walking and cycling path, extra lanes with potential use for high occupancy vehicles, wide road shoulders for future public transport and improved local road connections.

Improvements will be made at Papakura interchange and at Druy interchange to allow for electrification of the adjacent rail line.

A new interchange is set to be built at Drury South.

The project is part of $2.39 billion of transport upgrades in South Auckland that Waka Kotahi and KiwiRail will begin within the next three years as part of the Government’s New Zealand Upgrade Programme.

Construction on the first stage between Papakura and the Drury motorway service centre is expected to begin in early 2021.

Information days will be held on:

November 28, 7am – 12pm, Pukekohe Farmer’s Market.

November 28, 9am – 12pm, outside Drury Lotto & Superette.

November 29, 8am – 2pm, Pokeno Market.

December 5, 9am – 1pm, Bruce Pulman Park, Takanini.
