Palmerston North Essential Services Map
Evening all,
After some great feedback today on Facebook re: the suggestion of a Palmerston North Essential Service Map, we're doing it.

A few important pieces of information to read:
In the first instance... STAY HOME!
The map was created to assist users wanting to locate their closest available essential services, when and if absolutely necessary.
This is a GUIDE NOT GOSPEL - a collaborative effort amongst Palmerston North community members.
Please only utilise this map if you absolutely need to - this is NOT for boredom shopping expeditions, meetups or employment opportunities. Note that some premises may change hours and protocol at short notice. Please only contribute to this map if you have visited or work at one of these essential services. Do not go out of your way to do so.
Orange pin - may be open/accessible, info unverified
Green pin - open/accessible, info verified by two or more community members
Contributions, feedback and suggestions can at this stage be sent through comments and PMs to the associated Facebook page: (www.facebook.com...).

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.
