Old band, movie, superhero and pop culture t-shirts wanted
Hi Neighbours - I work with a young man who has special needs and we are working on a project to make bags out of old t-shirts. He is able to sew a little and he loves music and pop culture so we hope to combine these interests and make some bags that we could eventually sell. I'm wondering if anyone has any band, movie, superhero or general pop culture t-shirts that they would like to donate to us? It doesn't matter the size or how old they are or if they have rips or holes. I'm happy to come and pick them up. He's really excited about the project and we are hoping to get a few t-shirts for free just to get us started.

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)
