Donations to the women's refuge

Rhiann from Hataitai

Hi neighbours! I am currently in the process of buying items to make gift bags for the ladies and children at the women's refuge over the christmas time.
Even though we will all be having a lovely time with our families, some women and children will be struggling, alone, without necessities, and a little gift may really help them out, and also let them know that someone cares.
I currently have collected (myself and another generous donator from Miramar) items such as soap, shampoo, conditioner, tooth brushes, razors, and other such items. Items such as these will be great, and anything else useful such as brunch bars, deodorant and anything else you can think of! If you are able to help, your donations would be much appreciated!
If you cannot donate items, but would like to make a contribution, you can forward money, and I can either give the women the money, or buy necessity items, whichever you prefer.
I will be collecting till the 1st of December, so let me know if you have any donations. I have a scooter so am able to drive to surrounding suburbs, or am in Hataitai for you to drop off.
Thanks for your time,
Rhiann

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.

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.
