Show visitors are sure to get some good tips from the experienced and knowledgeable Murrell
North Haven Hospice has again partnered with this year's show, as the show organisers have once again removed the cost of entering the show in favour of donations being made to the charity. As well as collecting on the day, North Haven Hospice Volunteers will assist the visitors at the show. Last year the partnership with the More FM Northland Home and Living Show raised over $8,000 for the charity. Thanks to Mitre 10 MEGA Whangarei, all adults who visit the show and donate to North Haven Hospice, will go into the draw to win a trailer filled with goods from Mitre 10 MEGA Whangarei, valued at over $2,500.
More FM Northland Home and Living Show organiser Azelia Parkinson is delighted with the range and quality of sites that have booked for this year's show. "This year we have nine housing companies signed up, so to have so many choices under the one roof is a real bonus to prospective house builders and renovators" she says. "Housewares, security, hardware, painting, spa pools, pumps and tanks, DIY, guttering, wardrobes, kitchen and interior design specialists are all there as well as some unusual services that will create some interest -- even to free hearing checks and an artist".
Potter Electrical, who is this year's official show electrician, will also have a stand showing some lighting and home automation options that can enhance your home or office.
