Super Shot Saturday Vaccination Day - 16th October

Richard Herbert from Rotary Club of Tawa Inc.

Help us get our local community fully vaccinated.

Tawa Rotary is working with the Tawa Medical Centre and local MP Greg O'Conner to help promote the upcoming vaccination day.

Hopefully most people reading this are already vaccinated so the message is really for people to have a conservation with their family and friends to breakdown any remaining hesitation and get the job completed.

The vaccine clinic at the Tawa Medical Centre Linden Surgery, 49 Hinau Street, Linden, continues to have space available. And on "Super Saturday Vaccination Day" on 16th October, they will be open for walk-ins between 10am and midday. Else give then a call to make a booking for during the week - 04-232 7193.

Other nearby vaccination centres that will be open for the "Super Saturday Vaccination Day" include Johnsonville Shopping Centre (next to Nada Bakery), and at the Waitangirua Vaccination Center, Maraeroa Marae, 216 Warspite Avenue, Waitangirua, Porirua (9am to 1pm).

We can also offer transport to a vaccination centre if required.

⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️

The Team from SPCA New Zealand

It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:

👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
