Upcycling is the term used for taking a preloved item and transforming it - whether it's for a new purpose altogether, or just to give it an ‘extreme makeover'. Consider using the school holidays to get Upcycling with the smaller members of your household - or use the next rainy day to drag out the paint and your creativity!
In the meantime, check out some of the creative cookies from last year.
Rain or shine, our frontline crews are out there working. It’s all part of providing an essential service.
Here we have Water Serviceperson Whare in Ngaio at work on a leaking main. It’s hard to make him out under all that gear but to be fair, it was pretty wet and cold.

Here we have Water Serviceperson Whare in Ngaio at work on a leaking main. It’s hard to make him out under all that gear but to be fair, it was pretty wet and cold.
So to all our crews working on the frontline this winter, every day, in all kinds of weather, thanks for your hard work to keep our three waters flowing, our drinking water, stormwater and wastewater (including hot showers!). Your work is appreciated.

It was used to house amplifiers and CD players in a government agency. It is in average condition but would be perfect for a small recording studio or home automation set up, just needs a clean. PM for collection details.

Based at CABK Coastlands Offices, this long awaited service will provide the Kapiti community up to date information and advocacy on the benefits and grants paid by Work and Income New Zealand (WINZ), says HV BEST Manager Teresa Homan.
CABK will initially operate monthly clinics on the first Monday of each month, but anticipates this will quickly increase to fortnightly as awareness of the service grows. Kapiti BEST advocates are community based, professional, competent trained volunteers operating within the organisation’s Code of Ethics. They will provide advocacy with WINZ if needed. All information is treated in the strictest confidence and our clients are treated with dignity and respect and empowered to make their own decisions.
Kapiti’s diverse demographic, with its high percentage of elderly, low/fixed incomes, chronic health conditions/high health service users and young families comprises a large number reliant on government support. This number is expected to grow as the economic impacts of COVID 19 are felt throughout the community. Many find navigating the WINZ process challenging and accessing the supportive, empathetic knowledgeable guidance provided by our advocates can help ease what is often an already stressful time.
Kapiti BEST is grateful for the collaboration and support of the CABK Board and acknowledges and thanks Sandra Forsyth for her efforts in establishing the Kapiti service.
For further information or to make an appointment please call CABK Offices on 04 298 4944 or visit the CABK bureau on the first floor in Coastlands Shoppingtown.

This issue is packed with good reads and amazing offers from our friends and partners. We take a close look at urban farmer Freeman Farms, and visit an Auckland coastal garden that the owner waited three long decades to create as well as a Dunedin garden where they’ve grown flowers for nearly 50 years. We're still on the hunt for our Houseplant Hero, thanks to our friends at Yates and Kings Plant Barn. Nominations are now open for our 2020 Ryman Healthcare Gardener of the Year too! There’s a feature on walnut growers in NZ, highlights of new roses coming out this year and of course, details on how to get yourself $20 worth of free bulbs from NZ Bulbs.

Did you find it was more affordable or not?
