Repurposing Chip and Foil Packets - doing your part to help the planet!!

Terrena from St Heliers

Summer eating....Chips and Crackers Yum. Biscuits! Yum Yum. Most of these come in foil packets. Did you know that it takes about 2mins to eat a packet of chips and then 80 years for one foil packet to decompose in landfill - shocking!
We are making something out of nothing. Fusing foil to make survival blankets (think thermal blankets) for those needing warmth this winter. Rethinking your rubbish - instead of putting your foil in the bin you give those packets to your local St Heliers Fusion Group. 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. Check out facebook @chippacketprojectnz #foilfusionfriday

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
