One For Her - tackling period poverty
Hey ladies, you may have seen this picture on billboards as you have been driving around the coast and wondered what it was all about. One For Her is a community initiative I set up recently to collect donations of sanitary items that are then given to those who are struggling to afford these "luxury items".
We have collection points that accept donations in Whangaparaoa, Silverdale, Orewa, Dairy Flat, Warkworth & Snells Beach. Please see our Facebook and Instagram pages for more information - search "oneforher" or email me oneforher.nz@gmail.com
Next time you are buying sanitary products for yourself, please consider buying one for someone who can't afford to buy for herself.
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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
