Kolkata Walk Of Freedom

Peter from Pleasant Point - Temuka

I have visited and helped where I can in South East Asia three times over the last 4-5 years working with Freeset ( A company that was started by an Ashburton couple 15 years ago ) and have seen the incredible work they are doing

Freeset are helping free woman who are in the Trade and have been abused. Freeset can offer these women a choice of a better life including a job, education , health care and a sense of self worth.

My objective before I return in January 2019 is to raise funds, so more woman get the choice of a better life. For every $1000 raised will buy a sewing machine and someones freedom

My intention is to walk 2700k's by the end of November 2018 and hoping people will sponsor in pledges only if I complete that goal.

Or give us a wave or toot if you see me out walking the streets and roads of Point

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?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
