Still time to get free curtains Porirua!

Sustainability Trust

If you have a Community Services Card, you can get free curtains through Porirua Whānau Centre this week. Get info and an order form from the Centre early next week, take it home to measure your windows and fill it in, and bring it back before Friday, May 11.

Wellington Curtain Bank then makes the curtains to fit your windows, lining for extra warmth, and drops them back to the Whānau Centre for you to take home and hang. Curtains can keep heat in, cold out and power bills down – a great way to get ready for winter. For more info head to the Whānau Centre at 16 Bedford Court, Cannons Creek or call Wellington Curtain Bank on freephone 0508 78 78 24.

Central city

Ruth from Aro Valley

Was amused to see in the daily that an inner-city resident thought a Central Park would be good to have in Wellington. Not sure how wise it is to advertise its existence as I do appreciate its peace as opposed to the Botanical Gardens, but yes, we do have a large mature park by that name which is accessible by a shortish walk up Willis Street and onto Brooklyn Hill.
