Managing type 2 and pre-diabetes can be a lot of work. But Barbara Richardson hopes her new support group will make things a little easier. It was “a bit of a shock” for Mrs Richardson, an active North Otago farmer, to find out she was pre-diabetic two years ago. She did not have any symptoms, but her doctor included an HbA1C test, a measure of someone’s average blood sugar over three months, in her annual health check. It revealed a higher than average blood glucose level, placing her in the pre-diabetic category. Pre-diabetes can often lead to type 2 diabetes. ....
Cara Tipping Smith A quick nosey through business reports and predictions tells me that New Zealand small businesses are doing pretty well in the global shape of things. Xero’s new Small Business Index showed the small business sector was performing better than average for the second month in a row across all four measures – sales, jobs, wages and the time it takes to be paid.

Conversations about a move started after last year’s lockdown, when social distancing at the Ribble St building was difficult, due to its shape and size, and they wanted to be more visible in Oamaru. ....
Blink. Right?! But we’re excited. Last year saw our local community rally together in a bunch of new ways and we’re better and stronger for it. As it happens Xero agrees, stating “being part of a community has a very real commercial benefit that can’t even be broken by a pandemic”. The local pivots and innovations that 2020 delivered or inspired are worth celebrating. Things like Pen-y-bryn’s two Jameses’ own-price’ strategy last May. Brilliant and the frontrunner for elevating Oamaru in the minds of Kiwi travellers – thanks guys! Things like Anvil Engineers’ foot-operated hand sanitising station that made us all that bit safer and made the national news. Go Hayes family! ....
