❤️ To our elderly community ❤️
❤️ We are all well aware that a lot of our elderly live in their own homes with a spouse, or often alone.
Not everyone has friends and family to lean on for support and assistance in these times of concern.
If you are at home, frightened, and in need of help - please - reach out to your community via a message here on Neighbourly.
Someone will see it, and there are kind and helpful hearts out here that will do what they can to help you in these times.
I personally am in self isolation as I have a compromised immune system and must take extra care to be safe, and stay well. In addition, we have a good dose of the flu right now. (Tested - not Covid-19).
I have lovely neighbours around me who have helped whenever they can, and I am ever so grateful for this.
Are you at home worried and need someone to talk to? ❤️
Are you at home unwell and in need of a hand? ❤️
Reach out. ❤️
At this time I remind people of the wonderful opportunity we have to shop online and have it delivered for a fee.
Physical health may take a decline, but please, don't let pride or shyness diminish your mental health also.
My hand is up. I am here. Reach out. ❤️
In time to come, if need arises, I will create a group page especially for this.
Feel free to send me a private message, and let's see how we can coordinate some help for you ❤️
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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
