Luggage trailer
Age Concern have recently purchased, through some generous Lake Council funding, a covered trailer to go on the back of our new minibus and enable us to take walkers and wheelchairs. Our problem is that the trailer is in Wiri, near Manukau Auckland, ready for pick up. We were wondering if anyone is going to Auckland during June and would be able to pick the trailer up for us. We are a charity and would be eternally grateful if some kind person could do that for us and we will give a small koha. If you are able to help please ring 07 347 1539 or message us. Thanks in anticipation.
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)
