New Zealand female duo brings together women all around the globe in one unique project. Primothon (https://www.primothon.com/,) a brand that embodies the ideas of empowerment, wellness and strategy- is launching their first ever bootcamp on November 1st- an affordable and inclusive platform that provides challenges aiming to improve the lives of women everywhere.

“We hear and see a lot of good intentions in media and communities, but they often fizzle out as accountability drops. We wanted to provide something tangible for women that can be easily-implemented as they take charge of their lives,” said Gau Kurman, co-founder of Primothon. “This is the first project of its type that combines experts on multiple topics such as finance, health, mindset, creativity, etc. and delivers a holistic, authentic and affordable solution that is accessible to all.”

According to a KPMG Women’s Leadership study, 73% of women lack the confidence to pursue a job opportunity beyond their experience, 67% of women need more support building confidence to be leaders and 59% of women are worried others will judge their appearance.

Primothon covers the following topics in their bootcamp:

Mindset and self-realization work that digs deep
Health and beauty that goes beyond the superficial
Finances and how to manage them in a smart way
How to harness and maintain healthy relationships in life
Creativity that radiates into all aspects of life
Business and career that will inspire and motivate

Primothon has partnered with 25+ guest speakers from all over the world that will share their knowledge with the participants. There will be strategists, professional psychologists, fitness trainers, mindset coaches, etc to target all main spheres of life and offer a diverse range of topics and solutions.

In addition, 50% of the proceeds will be donated to the Women’s Refuge NZ, an organization dedicated to combating domestic abuse and the women and children affected by it. Primothon sets out to be much more than just another bootcamp, they hope to change the world, one woman at a time. Find out more at: https://www.primothon.com/

Laughter is the Breast Medicine

Live News

(PR.co.nz)

I am a strong believer that laughter is indeed the breast medicine, sorry… best medicine.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Dunedin Comedy is putting on another comedy benefit. For one night only, a stand-up comedy spectacular with 100% of the proceeds being donated to the Breast Cancer Foundation NZ.

Our lineup of female comedians are award winning, critically acclaimed, amazingly talented, and unquestionably hilarious. Most live here in Dunedin with a couple returning just for this performance. The show will be held in the Josephine Foyer at Toitū Museum, the perfect space for such an inclusive and community orientated event.

Not only is this show raising money for a good cause, it is also representing women in comedy, as every comedian on the show’s lineup is a female presenting person. We all know that women are underrepresented in comedy, both in New Zealand and on a global scale and events such as these are important for fighting stereotypes, as well as providing opportunities to see some of New Zealand’s funniest people on stage.

The atmosphere of this show is that of an inclusive, safe and welcoming environment often not found at bigger comedy clubs. If you find yourself avoiding stand-up comedy shows you will definitely feel welcome at this one.

This is Dunedin’s second comedy benefit for breast cancer awareness, one of the organisers Sophia Pi said: “in 2019 we printed and distributed posters ourselves. Performers and organisers donated their time. Strawberry Sound loaned their equipment free of charge. Our only real expense was the discounted venue hire. Keeping costs low allowed us to donate $1100 which was 75% of our total revenue… and this year we’re aiming to donate even more”

This year’s show is set to be bigger and better. Toitu can support a bigger audience, as well as a higher quality audience experience. The Josephine Foyer combines stunning architecture, accessibility and community engagement, to create the perfect environment for hosting charity events such as this. We are able to create not just an amazing show on the stage, but a wonderful experience for the evening as a whole.

There’s almost $1,000 worth of raffle prizes to be won, and we’ve been assured there won’t be any booby prizes 😉

Is laughter the best medicine? While no doctor would recommend laughter as an alternative to medicine my GP reckons that laughter has proven health benefits that would compliment my prescription meds quite well. So this Labour weekend treat yourself to a jolt of laughter for a good cause.

Event Details
Name: Laughter is the Breast Medicine
Date: Friday 23rd October (13/10/2020)
Time: 7:30pm – 9:00pm (doors open 7:00pm)
Location: Josephine Foyer, Toitū Museum
Tickets: $35-50 available on eventbrite

TPG has partnered with central and local government to support community housing redevelopments in New Zealand.

TPG is working hard to increase the availability of housing for New Zealanders, providing services such as transitional housing development, feasibility studies and housing needs assessments.

Some of TPG’s latest projects include a development feasibility study and preliminary Housing Needs Assessment for Te Puea Memorial Marae’s redevelopment in Auckland.

According to TPG Senior Property Consultant – Development Management, Clinton Fisher, such projects allow local and central governments to understand housing needs now and into the future.

TPG will also be engaging with community stakeholders, investigating potential partnership development opportunities, and improving emergency and transitional housing availability along with the quality of existing public housing.

Enhanced Home Cleaning at the Tips of Your Fingers

Live News

September 17, 2020

Source: Press Release Service

After 3 months of experiencing freedom from the grim virus, our country is back on alert. At the time of a pandemic, when virus spread can kill hundreds and thousands of people, it is our duty to keep our own surroundings clean. When we are healthy, we save ourselves and the people around us from the grim virus.

AUCKLAND, NZ — “We’re enhancing our mobile application and our home cleaning service so we can cater to anyone and everyone in need. Our goal now is to totally eradicate the traces of the virus in all homes. We all need to work together now.” shares an Urban Care representative.

Urban Care is a Kiwi-owned referral agency for babysitters, social workers, and cleaners. They have seen fluctuations in bookings from babysitters during the previous month to being COVID-free for cleaners, now that the country is back on alert. As the company observed the changes in their bookings, they are certain that locals are starting to look after their homes with triple the precautions.

COVID-19, it’s second, dreadful attack

“It can come back over and over again if we are not careful. I think we really need to educate everyone that cleanliness starts at home” are words expressed by the representative as he recalls the short period wherein the country was totally free from the virus.

The company is doing its best to reach more homes in Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch, where they currently operate. They are constantly training their local cleaners regarding safety measures and procedures under the strictly implemented precautions by the government. As they train their cleaners, they are also out on a mission to spread the word about the homes they service. A representative for Urban Care shares that its cleaners are specially trained to share cleaning tips with homeowners.

The director neither shared how they trained their cleaners nor where it was done.

When asked about the mobile application and why there is a need for it despite having a user-friendly website with a booking page, the director just said, “We want to be everywhere. Some users prefer mobile apps, some prefer using our website. We’ll cater to everyone. We’re also open for bookings through calls, you know. For traditional people who would prefer to talk to an agent rather than a chatbot.”

Visiting homes amidst second attack of the virus

Urban Care recently visited a home that booked recurring services to ensure its homes were well-sanitized. The customer states, “I can’t be too sure” pertaining to her own efforts in cleaning her home. “We need expert cleaners to clean our home”.

As his final words, Sam expresses their company’s fear whenever they render service. “Of course, we’re still cautious. I won’t deny that fear isn’t there. There still is.” “Our local cleaners are also afraid to catch it. So they are really careful and abide by the safety regulations as per the government.”

According to the company, their services can be booked in less than 60 seconds using their mobile application. You can download Urban Care’s mobile application to book a cleaning service here on Google Play Store and here on App Store.

About Urban Care

Urban Care is a smart and easy-to-use platform that connects people looking for household services with trusted and reliable experts. The mobile-enabled and website-enabled applications have brought customers closer together, putting the world in a more comfortable zone through innovation. The platform is easy to use, and customers can schedule a professional nanny, caregiver, and cleaner within a couple of minutes. Their valuable services are available throughout Auckland
