📝 It’s Wills Week in NZ! (14–20 July)
Did you know that nearly half of adult New Zealanders don’t have a will? Wills Week is the perfect time to sort yours!
This year’s theme is “Good Will” - encouraging Kiwis to think about the legacy they leave, not just for loved ones, but for their community too.
✅ What to do this week:
Start or update your will
Consider leaving a gift to a charity or cause
Talk to your whānau and friends about doing the same
A will isn’t just a document - it’s a gift to your future and the people (and causes) you care about.
Our expert team can assist you with wills & estate administration services. We also provide legal, financial, investment, Trusts & estate protection services.

Last Friday, we joined the first Living Wage Employer Breakfast in Christchurch. It was great to connect with other local employers in Ōtautahi who are also committed to paying a living wage, and we appreciated the recognition from Mayor Phil Mauger.
We're glad to be part of a group that’s working towards fairer pay and better workplaces for everyone. 👏

Care Publications is Eldernet’s sister company and brings you the “Where from Here” handbook. Formed over 26 years ago, and still owned and operated by New Zealanders, Care Publications has cemented itself as New Zealand’s leading provider of comprehensive, region specific, easy to understand information for older people, their families and those who work with them.
'Where from Here' provides an overview of services for older people in New Zealand. Our aim is to ‘put you in the driving seat’ by giving you the information you need to make informed decisions. Topics covered include: how to access services, retirement options, help at home, residential care, financial assistance and much more. The book lists all residential homes in the region and specifies the level of care each one provides. There are also lists of home help providers, Kaumatua services and day care providers.
Five editions cover New Zealand and each is specific to the area concerned: Upper North Island; Middle North Island; Lower North Island; Upper South Island; Lower South Island.
Each edition is updated every twenty months and is available free of charge through approved agencies and via health professionals such as social workers, needs assessors and service co-ordinators at public hospitals. Agencies where they may also be available include: your local GP, library, Age Concern, Grey Power or Citizens Advice Bureaux. Books can be ordered online or by contacting us.
