For a family in need
Hi Neighbourly
I’m not too sure it’s it is the right place to advertise this. I am a social worker working with family in high needs. I am working with a family With 4 boys Who are passionate about basketball. The boys have asked me if I could get them a basketball hoop to put in the house. The children have not much so sport is a good way for them to be occupied . And it is good for them as exercise work on your physical and mental wellbeing . So if you have one in the back of the garage that you do not use any more, I would be more than happy to come and get it. If it is not appropriate I’m happy to remove the comment 😊
Kindly appreciate it
Thank you
Corinne
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)
.
