Summer safety checklist: Fall-proofing your home

The Team from ACC New Zealand

With warmer weather heading our way, gardening is a great way to stay fit and get regular doses of Vitamin D to help strengthen our bones.

The Home Safety checklist will give you practical tips on how to avoid falls, sprains and strains while pulling those stubborn weeds. For example, when you’re gardening avoid heavy lifting and use long-handled tools so you’re not bending over for long periods. Steady yourself when bending and standing, no pesky weed is worth falling for!

A new movement called Live Stronger for Longer is helping to reduce the risk of falls by providing practical information and free resources. We want to help you stay on your feet, and living the life you want to live.

Take the home safety checklist with your friends and family and join the movement today.

Proudly brought to you by ACC, HQ&SC, MOH and your local community health providers.

Poll: Pushing our plastic problem offshore is wrong

David from Judgeford - Pauatahanui

Hi,
We all try to do our best with recycling, especially when it comes to plastics. But there's been a lot of comments recently about the damage that's being done in Malaysia and Indonesia by imported plastics just being dumped or burned.
Porirua City Council exports all plastic recycling to Malaysia and Indonesia. We recycle cardboard, aluminium and glass in NZ.
I don't want to be responsible for ruining lives and ecosystems in another country so I am asking our local MP, Chris Faafoi, what plans the government has to recycle our plastic in our country.
What do you think?

Pushing our plastic problem offshore is wrong
  • 2.3% It's OK to send it offshore 'cos it's the cheapest option
    2.3% Complete
  • 97.7% NZ should take a lead and build our own plastics recycling capability
    97.7% Complete
