Jammies in June 2019

The Team from Howick Village Association

This year, we are proud to participate in the 'Jammies in June' Middlemore Foundation project.

Within Howick Village, there are five collection points organised which will welcome all donations for new children's flannelette/winter pyjamas, as well as other necessities such as beanies, scarves, nighties, socks, mittens and gloves.

Children living in disadvantaged communities are three times more likely to end up in hospital with winter illnesses so small practical steps, even as something as simple like a warm night's sleep, can set them up for healthier and brighter futures.

To donate to this cause, feel free to visit the below locations:

Howick Information Centre (115 Picton St)
Howick Village Optometrists (94 Picton St)
Picton Street Alterations (52 Picton St)
Howick Village Business Association (12 Central Tce)
LJ Hooker Real Estate (49 Picton Street)

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.
