Dovetale Press want to give people living with
dementia the pleasure of sharing a great read at
the public library, improving social connection
and confidence. If successful, their Kickstarter
campaign will provide six sets of five Dovetale
Press dementia-friendly books to 20 New
Zealand public libraries. That’s 600 books in all,
or a set of books for shared reading in a group
of six people at 20 public libraries across New
Zealand. If pledging meets 200% success, then
40 libraries will benefit with 1200 books shared
in groups, and so forth. Participating libraries
also receive a digital resource with suggestions
on how to run a dementia-friendly book group.
The Dovetale Press series has been produced
after years of research into reading and
dementia, through the University of Otago and
with support from Bupa NZ.

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.
