Update the Bathroom! As with the kitchen, the aim here is a modern appearance. A bathroom that looks old will instantly date the entire property in the minds of prospective buyers. Updating your bathroom needn’t be expensive or difficult; simply replacing the fixtures like cabinet fronts and faucets, as well as the lighting, can quickly modernise the entire room. Replacing stained grout will undoubtedly modernise the room. For those with the know how, a DIY refit of the bathroom can be very cost effective.

We’re expecting a heavy downpour early morning and steady rain/showers throughout the time we would be planting. As much as we love rain at times, we want this day to be enjoyable for the plants and the people, so have decided to postpone Spade Aid to Sunday 30th July, same time and same place!
For those people wanting to practise their amazing planting skills, don’t forget we have a community planting day the weekend before at the Tilley Road entrance, Paekakariki. For more details on this event, see goo.gl...

Top Tip Number 3!
Refit the Kitchen! Prospective buyers know they’re going to spend a lot of time in the kitchen of any house that they buy. A tidy, modern looking kitchen can seriously improve the value of a home; when it comes to updating there are two options: replace or recover. The state of your current kitchen, budget and end goal will determine which is the right option for you. Whether your looking to replace or recover, your key targets are benches, cabinets, drawer fronts, skirting; handles, whether door, drawer or cabinet are noticed more than most people realise and new or cleaned handles can make a big difference at little cost. One addition to your kitchen that can really bring a modern feel is splashback glass, it has a very clean look and comes in a wide range of colours to suit any colour scheme.

To be honest, there is some interesting data being gathered which I think the elected Councillors will consider. Sure - there are still some questions in my head and I do feel more work needs to be done, so I await to see what the next stage is. One can request a copy from 'Ask Us' on the UHCC website.

Are you ready? Out on the streets you may see members of the Community Patrols, Safecity Ambassadors and Maori Wardens. Police urge people to be welcoming and ask drivers to take extra care on the roads, with the added numbers of campervans around. Watch your speed, be courteous and stay safe!
Being in hospital is a tough time for any kid but a new initiative aims to brighten up children's stays at Hutt Hospital with brand new pyjamas.
The inaugural PJs for Hutt Kids drive, run by Hutt Valley DHB and the Warehouse, was launched on June 21. Do you have a spare pair to donate?
