Melanie Medland: Moving Through

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.

I’m passionate about changing the conversations around mental health, especially anxiety and depression, and would like to see mental health issues discussed openly with no judgement or shame attached to them.

Teenagers are at an age and stage of their lives where they need lots of support. Unfortunately, too many teens are falling through the cracks of our health system and parents and families are struggling to support them as they move from childhood to becoming young adults in our society.
I’ll be covering specific steps you can take if you are supporting a teenager, or if you are worried about a family member who has anxiety or depression.
Valuable information will be discussed, and I look forward to seeing you there.
Check out my Facebook page MovingThroughwithMelanie or my website www.movingthrough.net...
A free 1 hour coaching session with Melanie will be offered in a draw on the night!

Poll: Are you happy owning your own home, or renting?

Paul Reporter from Stuff

Are we happier owning our own home or renting?

It turns out one answer does not fit all.

Some people feel more "grounded" owning their own home, giving them the feeling they're planning for the future and creating a legacy. But there are people who think the opposite. Read more
