Share My Super
For many superannuitants like myself daily life has gone quiet. No visits to friends and family, no outings other than local walks. Some of us will be saving money, expecially on petrol, and on treats such as coffees, eating out, and entertainment. It's a good time to think of those who aren't so lucky, and in particular children living in poverty. If you have money to spare - however little - go to the Share My Super website sharemysuper.org.nz..., where you can donate to a variety of charities with a proven track record in helping children in poverty. It's very simple to donate, and all the money goes straight to your chosen charity. There couldn't be a better time to help.

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)
.
