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.

It draws big crowds to watch the huge behemoths compete for the national heavyweight trophies, hear the Highland pipes and drums and see the best of Scottish dancing.
The public can register for the tug o war and the farmer's walk both challenging heavyweight events. Tartan in the Park is always popular and gives an ideal opportunity for people young and old to dress up in their best Scottish or period gear.
McLeod’s Brewery are one of the main sponsors of the day and will have a bar in the main café on site along with other vendors galore, but feel free to bring a picnic and shelter under the trees while watching all there is to offer.
At lunchtime the massed bands and dancers will play in the main arena and the crowd will accompany the pipes to Flower of Scotland.
A truly fun day of Scottish highlights. Plenty for the children to do. Entry for children is free.

Northpower Trust Chairman Erc Angelo has confirmed the distribution to every household or business on the Northpower electricity network.
“The credit will be displayed on power bills sent out by your electricity retailer in either December or January,” says Mr Angelo.
“This year’s distribution is really significant and is testimony to the value of the consumer owned trust model that we have.
“Looking back over the last 25 years it is great knowing we have been able to give back so much."
Between 1993 and 2018, the Northpower Trust and Northpower Limited have returned $211 million to consumer beneficiaries in Kaipara and Whangarei.
