Repurpose your unused digital devices!

The Team from Depot Artspace

We want to close the digital divide!

As part of the Depots' Artslab programme, we support 180 unemployed creatives find work every year.

We usually provide laptops at our workshops but due to lockdown we can’t, so some of our creatives are feeling very isolated and struggling to apply for work.

Recently on RNZ it was revealed that on average each NZ household has 6.5 digital devices but only two thirds of these are used.

We want to set up a programme whereby you can drop off your unused digital devices to us and we will repurpose them.

So if you have an old phone, tablet or laptop that works please get in touch: artslab@depotartspace.co.nz

Alternatively, you can drop them off on Wednesdays 11am - 5pm during the current lockdown level 3. We will have a staff member present those days.

Thank you in advance!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
