Christmas Cheer Appeal

Tracy from Taradale

Hi, I have recently joined a group called Mums on a Mission and we do a Christmas Cheer Appeal. We fill as many boxes as possible with new or good condition second hand items. Each boxes will end up
With 28 items. The boxes have themes such as boy or girl, baby, toddler or different age groups. Pamper boxes for ladies or gents, healthy boxes and food boxes just to name a few. These boxes are then donated to designated charities in Hawkes Bay or some are given to people who have applied. All the information is on mumsonamission.co.nz. We would really appreciate anything you could donate to help those less fortunate have a Merry Christmas. Thank you for taking the time to read this. If you would be interested in donating items please let me know. Kind regards Tracy

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.
