Hey neighbours, there are few Kiwis who haven't experienced cold or damp housing at some point in New Zealand, whatever part of the country you call home. So what's being done to change that for future generations?

Here's how a passive revolution and building code changes could help our health - and the climate.

The station opened on 15 May 1981, and was designed to use the artesian underground water resource of the Lower Hutt Valley to its maximum extent 💧
Eight wells supply water from the Waiwhetu aquifer to the Water Treatment Plant located right next to the Waterloo Train Station 🚉

THANK YOU, VOLUNTEERS!
When Aotearoa faces challenging times, Kiwis always step up to support people in need. Volunteers are instrumental in ensuring that we get through, together.
“Every day, a network of 11,000 Red Cross volunteers and members across the country help us respond to disasters, settle new Kiwis, help run our shops, deliver Meals on Wheels, teach former refugees how to drive, sew curtains for families in need, and so much more. Last financial year, Red Cross volunteers gave close to 120,000 hours of their time. They are the hands and feet of almost everything we accomplish,” says Niamh Lawless, our Secretary General.

Many carry pain and unresolved emotions from a decision to end a pregnancy, or offer up a child for adoption. These pains and sorrows often go unspoken and we feel like we carry them alone. As churches, we want our communities to be safe spaces where grief can be shared and pain can be held in collective love. Shamefully, the Church has not always been a safe place for children. We grieve this, and confess the evil this has enabled where love should have prevailed.
Tonight the combined churches of the peninsula are hosting a candlelight service of lament, remembering, and prayer. It will be held at St Aidan’s Anglican Church, 89 Miramar Ave. Come for yourself. Come for your friends and family. Come for our children.
