We have been given some house plants to break up, re-pot and sell as a fund raiser. However, we dont have enough pots. Do you have any unwanted pots lying around in your garden shed/under the hedge/behind the garage that we could use? Any size would be great but prefer the size of a large jam jar. We're happy to pick up in Hawera, and hope to re-pot this weekend. Thank you in advance.

🌭🔥 BBQ Today – Everyone Welcome! 🔥🌭

Don't forget our BBQ today! Come along to Bunnings from 10am - 2pm, enjoy some great food, and support our cause.

We will also have our Mobile Office on site, parked near the BBQ. It's warm, dry, and has plenty of seating inside, making it a great place to escape the weather and have a look around.

This is a great opportunity to see what we've done with the Mobile Office, learn more about how it is being used, and share any ideas or suggestions you may have. Noel will be there and would love to show you through and answer any questions.

All money raised from the BBQ will help with administration costs, so your support is greatly appreciated.

We look forward to seeing you there!

Taranaki is still under MetService's Heavy Rain and Strong Wind Watches for most of today (Sunday) as part of the Cyclone Vaianu weather system which is now tracking further down the east coast of New Zealand.

What this means for us?
▪️We can still expect periods of strong wind and heavy rain throughout today and into the evening
▪️While the more severe weather is expected to affect parts of the east coast, we’re not completely out of the clear yet
▪️Conditions may still be changeable, so it’s worth staying aware

We’re continuing to monitor the situation closely and will share updates if anything changes.

Weather events can always change quickly and taking time to get prepared is always worthwhile. Being ready means you're better off when something does affect us.

Remember always put safety first
Secure loose items outdoors, if it is safe to do so.
Drive to the conditions

We’re monitoring Cyclone Vaianu as it moves towards New Zealand, with wind and rain expected to reach Taranaki from Sunday.

There's still some uncertainty in the intensity and the impacts for us locally but it's a good reminder to be prepared for potential power outages and surface flooding around the region.

Take some time while its calm over the next few days to get prepared.

Preparing for no power

➡️If the power goes out, eat the food from your fridge first, then your freezer. Then eat the food in the cupboard or your emergency kit.
➡️Use torches or battery powered devices for lighting instead of candles. Don’t use candles and oil lamps if possible.
➡️Turn off appliances to avoid damage when power returns
➡️Fully charge your devices and consider having a spare battery or mobile power pack
➡️Know how to override your garage door
➡️Have a stock of food that doesn’t need to be cooked or something to cook your food on (gas barbecue or camp stove). Don’t forget food for babies and pets.
➡️Check on neighbours especially older or vulnerable people
➡️If you or someone in your house is medically dependant on power, check with your doctors and power company to ensure there is a plan in place

Know how your will stay informed
➡️A solar or battery powered radio (or your car radio) can help you keep up to date with the latest news Check which FM and AM channels we get in Taranaki
