Stick to your bubble, not your couch!
Hi all, I have just moved to Nelson at the beginning of March and, despite current times, have enjoyed my daily exercise exploring my local area, the trees especially are exceptional- all different and turning for autumn.
I am working for New Zealand Red Cross and we have set up a virtual mission challenge where you walk 71km at your own pace and within government guidelines and you can follow your progress with views of Lake Taupo! Its a great way to keep your steps up and be part of a community.
You can check out more on this link, its a suggested $25 which goes towards helping the most vulnerable in communities and is a nice way to connect and stay active during this time: www.facebook.com... or www.myvirtualmission.com...
I cant wait until we are able to explore Nelson and the surrounding areas more after lockdown, its such a lovely part of the world

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
