Community projects wanted. Mens Shed Auckland East

Douglas from Glendowie

Do you have a community project we can help with?

Mens Shed Auckland East Inc undertakes many community projects, large and small.

We have 170 volunteer members with a wide range of skills and can work in wood, metal, and many other materials. For example, we build and repair play equipmenSkiled people at t for Kindies and schools, build outdoor benches for hospices and public spaces, make cubby hole arrays and notice boards for churches – and we have just completed our 6,000th rat-trap as part of the Predator Free NZ initiative. Our charges are very modest and reflect our volunteer workforce. Note: we are not a “repair shop” providing services to private individuals.

For examples of the type of work we do visit the projects page of our website. www.mensshedaucklandeast.org.nz...

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.
