New Zealand Epilepsy education petition

Erin from Brookfield

Hello,
I'm currently running a petition through parliament to make epilepsy education, training and awareness mandatory in schools. I believe that there is a significant lack of education around the issue in schools, that many students are unsure of what to do when someone has a seizure, and that people often treat people living with epilepsy differently. I want to make New Zealand students who are living with epilepsy, no matter how bad their symptoms, feel more accepted in school rather than judged or isolated. I want them to know that if they were to have an unexpected seizure they are in a safer environment. I would greatly appreciate any signatures and support!

Poll: Is it rude to talk on the phone on a bus?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Buses can be a relaxing way to get home if you have a seat and enough space. However, it can be off-putting when someone is taking a phone call next to you.

Do you think it's inconsiderate for people to have lengthy phone calls on a bus? Vote in the poll, and add your comments below.

Smash and grab

Hayley from Mount Maunganui

Hey does anyone have any home cameras that may have picked up someone smashing my widow outside Cayman apartments between 10pm Wednesday night and 9am Thursday. They obviously were targeting my radar detector.
