Community Lunch - Thursday 12th April 11:30am

Mark Hudson from Community Focus Trust

We've saved you a seat... so you're invited to come and join us for our Community Lunch, Thursday 12th April 11:30am at Empower Church.

Our guest speaker this month is Craig Dixon, a man with many talents and the face of Foodtogether. His story is how he started this social enterprise, that now operates across NZ.

We always have a great time connecting with others from the community over a 2-course meal, all for a gold coin donation.

Our thanks for the support from Empower Church, City Harvest NZ and St Albans Fruit & Vege Co-Op -(Foodtogether), so a big shout out to these organisations for making this lunch happen.

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)
.
