No more hot meals for homeless under lockdown

Josephine Franks Reporter from Central Leader

Kia ora neighbours, Auckland's homeless will no longer receive hot meals or be able to congregate at Auckland City Mission as the country locks down.

Instead, they will be given a takeaway bag with food for a day as the Mission looks for way to support the community under the restrictions of alert level 4.

The Mission expects to feed 400 people a day for the duration of the four-week lockdown.

Looking for odd jobs

Maya from Sandringham

Hi all!

I’m looking for any odd jobs around Auckland. I’ve just finished my degree and will be heading overseas in 8 weeks and I’m looking to make some cash!

I have experience in child care (6 years), animal care (4 years), gardening, cleaning and anything else you can think of!


Please send me a message or leave a comment as I’d love to have a chat about anything you need ☺️
