Pharmacy’s closed.

Sue from Kaiapoi

I needed to grab something from a pharmacy today but decided to support locally instead of going into a Mall. Out of 3 pharmacy’s in Kaiapoi, not one was open in the afternoon. Very disappointed and will just have to use the malls. Could they not roster between them to at least have one available. For people working all week and things to attend to on Saturday mornings, it’s not very helpful.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
