Reuse Chip Packets - it is possible!!
Chips! Yum. Biscuits! Yum Yum. Most of these come in foil packets. Did you know that it take 80 years for one foil packet to decompose in landfill? We are making something out of nothing. Fusing foil to make survival blankets (think thermal blankets) for those needing warmth this winter. Instead of putting your foil in the bin can you give them to us? We are the Chip Packet Project St Heliers Fusion Group. Contactless collection bin in the back of St Philips Anglican Church at 92 St Heliers Street.
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)
.
