Volunteers Needed.

Sarah from Carterton District

Digital Seniors is looking for volunteers to help seniors with their digital devices.

You don’t have to be a tech wizard; we are looking for people with a working knowledge of how the average phone or tablet works (and can explain it to others). Above all, we’re looking for someone kind, patient, and who wants to really make a difference in the life of a senior.

Volunteering with us is very rewarding and is a fantastic way to meet and get to know some of the amazing seniors in our community as well as joining a very special team of volunteers.

We’d need you for a few hours a week – we need volunteers to help in the following locations.
Masterton (at the Library) – Wednesdays from 10 am – 12 pm
A Masterton Rest Home– Fridays from 10:30 am – 12 pm
A Carterton Rest Home – Monday’s from 10 am – 12 pm

If you would like more information please call 0800 373 646 or email sarah.wright@digitalseniors.co.nz

A gaggle of Digital Seniors coaches. Help seniors and join our fabulous team!

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?

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?
