WEAVE Cultural Market

Community Activator from Red Cross - Waikato Service Centre

A call to our community!
This year's WEAVE Cultural Market will be on the 11th of December in Garden Place from 4pm till 8pm. The New Zealand Red Cross hosts this as an opportunity for our former refugee and migrant communities to host a food or craft stall, showcasing the talent and diversity that they bring to Hamilton communities. This year we have found ourselves short on a few items and hope that you can support us to spread the word, with the hope of securing these.

We are currently wanting to kindly borrow:
- Gazebos for our stalls.
- Yard games.

Please help us to share the word!

If you are able to help, please feel free to call us on 07 849 0285 or email: waikato@redcross.org.nz.

Poll: Do you think an age check is required for these drinks?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Stores are checking IDs for fancy soft drinks and not everyone is happy about it.⁠
⁠
One shopper, who asked not to be named, bought some zero alcohol branded drinks at his local supermarket and was asked to “step around into the thoroughfare so a supervisor could see me and make sure I was over 18. I couldn't believe it."⁠
