Woburn Masonic Care facility

Reporter Community News

Residents and workers at the Woburn Masonic Care facility are facing an uncertain future.
A proposed two-year project to rebuild the facility could result in 56 residents having to find new homes and some of the 45 staff finding new work.
Masonic management has said some staff could be redeployed to other facilities and there are existing rest homes in the Hutt Valley that could take residents.
Management says the facility opened 53 years ago and no longer meets modern standards.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
