Changes to JP Service Desks in Whangarei
The Northland JP Association wishes to advise that the Service Desk at the District Courthouse on Bank St will cease operation on Friday 16 August. The Saturday morning Service Desk at the Central Library will continue as per usual.
As from Wednesday 4 September, a JP Service Desk will operate at the Central Library on both Wednesday and Thursday mornings, 9.30 am until 12.00 noon in addition to the Saturday morning session.
As previously posted, there are also JP Service Desks at Tikipunga Library on Monday and Wednesday mornings 9.30 am - 12 noon, Onerahi Library on Thursdays 2.00 - 4.00 pm and Ruakaka Library on Saturdays 10.00 - 11.00 am.
A summary document listing the locations and times is attached
No appointment is necessary when coming to a Service Desk. However, if you need a JP outside of these Service Desk hours, you will need to find one by going to justiceofthepeace.org.nz. Use the Quick Find function by typing in a/your suburb and clicking "Search". This will bring up a list of Justices of the Peace in that location with their contact details and availability. You will then need to contact the JP and arrange an appointment.

Best way to use leftovers?

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