THE GARAGE/CAR BOOT SALE WITH THAT BIG DIFFERENCE!

Kate from Trentham

YES! it's on again this coming Saturday, 6 April at UHBC's Community Centre, corner Fergusson Drive / Milton Street, Upper Hutt. Doors opening 8.30am - come and see what we're all about. Bargains galore with a free cuppa and cheesy toast triangles (while they last). We've been doing these Monthly Garage Sales since 1990, can you believe!!
Car boot sites $15 - please book by ph.528-3454 or text 0274 707 522. In addition to our regular recipients of financial support (Circuit International - improving lives in Myanmar) and Womgel in Ethiopia (sponsored through Tear Fund), we'll support Orphans Aid International this time. OAI was started by a New Zealand couple who sold their family home to set up an orphanage in Romania some years ago. The work has expanded into Uganda, Nepal and here in New Zealand. Check out their website - you'll be impressed.
Come and see why this monthly community event has been running since 1990!!

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?
