Keen to Volunteer?

Administration Team from Dogwatch Sanctuary Trust Adoption Centre

We are looking for keen energetic people who would like to help us at our Adoption Centre in Bromley. We are looking for Shelter Assistants, to assist with meal prep and feeding, cleaning dog kennels, general chores to keep our facility spic and span, and assisting in providing enrichment for our dogs. We have various shifts across the day.
All volunteers are able to have interaction with most of our dogs (not all of them), however, as a new recruit, this is under supervision by a staff member or your volunteer "buddy".
If you are interested in knowing more, please email our Personnel Manager for an Information Pack: patria.carter@dogwatch.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
