Donate a child's Christmas gift for charity.

Carmel from Ebdentown

Just posting this again.

At PORSE, we know not every family is in the position to put presents under the Christmas tree for their children, when putting food on the table is challenge enough.

Help us put a smile on some little faces this Christmas, by donating a small gift for a child to PORSE, for us to deliver to the Woman's Refuge on 19 December, ready for Christmas.

Christmas Gifts can be dropped off at the Hutt Valley PORSE office, 7/7 Gibbons Street from Monday 21st November until Friday 16th December. Offices are open Monday to Friday 8.30am to 5pm.

Or if you cant make it to the office, one of our lovely PORSE ladies are happy to pick up. Please contact Emma on 021 534 757 or emma.norman@porse.co.nz.

Gifts don't need to be wrapped, but if you do, please specify boy/ girl and age.

Thank you so much.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
