New Foodbank Project hub in Palmerston North
To celebrate World Food Day, we're delighted to share that we've launched a new Foodbank Project hub in Palmerston North!
Stu and the team at Palmerston North Salvation Army are grateful to receive donations made through The Foodbank Project. When people come to their foodbank seeking support, they are able to use your donation in food parcels, along with other essential items help get them through the tough times they're facing ❤

Huge thanks to our partners Countdown Supermarkets and Lucid - we couldn't do this without their support!
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.
