Heart of the City chief executive Viv Beck is calling on the government to consider ‘Covid Loans’.
“We’re keen to see innovative ideas to support businesses and not load the country up with more debt than necessary,” she said.
“Many people have told us they have not had good access to capital and ‘Covid Loans’ could be a solution that could be implemented using existing arrangements.”
’Covid Loans’ would allow businesses to access funding with much more manageable repayment options, similar to student loans,

“Being trapped in the same house means there are more opportunities for someone to physically abuse their partner and less opportunities for that person to escape,” a spokesperson for the charity said.
“While additional stress created by the impact of lockdown on jobs, finances, unwell or elderly family members, and childcare does not cause domestic violence, these factors may heighten the risk of physical abuse.”
Adverts will feature on digital LED billboards lit up around Auckland city for two weeks.
Shine offers free specialist help that can be accessed by phone or webchat for people experiencing domestic violence.
The helpline is 0508 744 633 and webchat is available 27/7 at www.2shine.org.nz....
Today we're helping to shape the future by working together to try and set a new world record for the most people speaking and celebrating an endangered Indigenous language at the same time!
