Our skeleton isn’t something we tend to think about and most of us take it for granted. However, if you want to live an active, independent life well into old age, a healthy skeleton matters. Most people hear the word ‘fracture (broken bone)’ and think ‘nuisance’. Some initial pain, an awkward few weeks in plaster, and having to shower with a plastic bag. Not many people consider that it could be an indicator of something more serious. Christine Gill, Executive Director of Osteoporosis New Zealand, will be speaking at our meeting on 30 March at the Golf Club to discuss the human skeleton, the impact on the skeleton from lifestyle factors such as exclusion diets, being underweight, smoking and exercise. They will also highlight the risk factors for osteoporosis such as previous fragility fracture and historic use of some medications (e.g. prednisone) as well as treatment and diagnosis of osteoporosis. This is our first meeting at the Golf Club in 2021 so please come along for this important and interesting talk and the chance to socialise with fellow members, spouses and friends. |

Join our Zoom meeting on Tuesday 15 June at 7.30pm to hear Mike Ross, from Victoria University, talk about the Treaty of Waitangi and colonisation and other Maori related issues. Mike is an expert in this field and I'm sure will be very interesting. These are important issues for New Zealand and we should all try to deepen our knowledge. Mike teaches in the Māori Studies Department, and is the “kai korero” or senior Māori orator for the University. He is also a member of the Kauhanganui (tribal Council) of Tainui Waka and is Kaumatua (elder) of Ngati Haua, a senior tribe of Tainui. Mike is an accomplished speaker and also has personal experience in whānau and tribal issues related to the Treaty of Waitangi and the realities of colonisation. His PhD included a history of the settlement of Tainui in Waikato as well as a clear and fearless account of the internal conflicts within the Māori governance of Tainui Waikato in recent times. Mike is a peace-maker and is widely respected. |
