Before I Die I want to...

Te Omanga Hospice

Te Omanga Hospice has created a 'Before I Die' wall in celebration of Dying to Know Day in August. The wall is part of a global art project that invites people to contemplate death and reflect upon their lives by asking "Before I Die I want to..."

Originally created by Candy Chang on an abandoned house in New Orleans after the death of a loved one, there are now more than 5,000 walls in 78 countries and 36 languages.

Visit the following Hutt City Libraries to join the conversation:
* 3 - 9 August: Petone Library
* 10 - 15 August: Lower Hutt Memorial Library
* 17 - 23 August: Wainuiomata Library
* 24 - 30 August: Upper Hutt Library

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
