Welcome to ‘PAINT AUGUST YELLOW’the Cancer Society’s Awareness Campaign Month

To those who have supported us in the past a very ‘big thank you😊’ This is a new initiative. We are asking our supporters to host a fundraising event in the month of August and to share the message with your whanau/family and friends. Here are some fundraising ideas-

· Host a ‘Dress yellow’ Work/ Home Day
· Organise a Gold Coin Donation Mufti Day at school/kindy or preschool
· Hold a bake sale
· Organise a sausage sizzle, quiz night or movie night
· Host a morning/afternoon tea or dinner
· Dye your hair yellow/or wear a yellow wig and some are shaving their hair
· Mini walkathons/bikeathons and paintathons

Your event will help Paint August Yellow, raise critical funds needed to support the work of the Cancer Society and send a powerful message that no one should go through cancer alone.

For any additional information or enquiries please email otilao@cancersoc.org.nz or call 0223090039.

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?

Public Transport fares face 70% increase..

Mike from Alicetown

Wellington region users says increases to public transport fares of more than 70 percent would be "ludicrous", and would lead to them working from home more often, or taking the car rather than the bus.
