What's your 2018 Community Resolution?
2017 is nearly done, 2018 is coming in hot. This New Years we want to know what your resolutions are in your community. Are you thinking of starting a new club? Want to encourage volunteering? Got something you want to share with you neighbours? What do you want where you live?
I'm sure not eating as much sugar is a noble pursuit, but we want to see goals which better your whole community (not just your waistline).
We really want to know because we want to share your resolutions this year so that at the end of it we can check back in and see how it went. How you made a difference in your community.
Let us know your Community Resolution by emailing matthew.salmons@fairfaxmedia.co.nz and we'll be in touch.
HAPPY NEW YEARS!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
