Message from Birthright Kapiti:
We are unable to accept donnations this week! Thank you for your generosity, we are full š
A gentle reminder whilst you sort through your items over the christmas holiday - if you would gift the item to a close friend, we would love to receive it. If it is stained, ripped or damaged please take this elsewhere and despose of it responsibly. Our volunteers love to see your generous spirit and we take great pleasure in being able to gift items to those in need in the community, or to put them in our great shop. However, it is disheartening to have waste items donated that take time to sort through and cost money to have removed.
Birthright will be closed from Friday 20th December and reopen on Monday 13th January.
We wish you all a very merry Christmas and look forward to seeing you in the new year.
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 wouldnāt be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
