Speaker : Jessica Finucane of Big Brothers Big Sisters. This organisation offers quality mentoring relationships for young people in New Zealand. Their mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of youth through professionally supported mentoring relationships. They provide tamariki (young kiwi kids) with a trained mentor. They match young people between the age of 6 and 12 years with a mentor until the young person turns 18. See bigbrothersbigsisters.org.nz...

The cost is as listed above for all coming to the meeting.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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.
