Homeless or about to be Homeless
A checklist for those who are homeless or just about to be homeless.
Contact WINZ and ask to be put on the Emergency Housing list
If you are looking like nowhere to go and only have two or three days left contact WINZ again. If you ring and keep getting disconnected then call into your local office.
If anyone has any other ideas of how they managed to get Emergency Accommodation please join the Homeless in Kapiti Facebook group as commenting will be turned off here due to unnecessary rude and uninformed comments from previous posts. The link for the Facebook group is

If still no luck contact Rob McCann at KCDC.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
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.
