Pyjamas needed for our local children who are in need

Jan from Pukekohe

CAN WE DO IT !
OF COURSE WE CAN !
IF WE WORK TOGETHER.



These pyjamas go direct to the children in our community who have been identified

as needing them now.



We have seen many times before just how generous the people of Pukekohe are.

As we all know, the nights are getting colder and there are 213 children who have been identified by their teachers as being in need of a pair of nice warm pyjamas to keep them warmer on these cold nights.

We are very grateful for the generous donations we have received to date.

Here are numbers and sizes of pyjamas that we are currently short of.

Pyjamas can be left at Franklin County News, Pukekohe Travel or Pukekohe Anglican church or text Jan on 0274521 366 and we will arrange for them to be collected. Maybe you could collect some for us at your office or place of work or amongst your friends.

Thank you for supporting our local community as we try to keep our children warm and out of hospital.

This project is the Middlemore Foundation run in conjunction with our Franklin Health Locality, Pukekohe Community Action and Pukekohe Anglican Church plus our wonderful community.

MANY MANY THANKS

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
