Karori Friendship Club for seniors

Angela Gordon from St Ninian's Uniting Parish

If you're a Senior who'd like to stay active and connected in the community, then the Karori Friendship club is for you! We're a fun group of retired folks who meet each Tuesday from 10am-1pm at St Ninian's (opposite KNS).

We have an ever-changing line up of guest speakers, music, entertainment, quizzes, games and more - plus we always put the world to rights over a cuppa.

For a koha, morning tea and a light lunch is served. Transport can also be provided, call Rachel in the St Ninian's office on 476 7137.

You don't have to be from Karori to join us - we have members from all over the city.

St Ninian's is at 208 Karori Rd. There is parking available on the side streets around the church.

The goal is to keep these spaces open for those who truly need them. Do you think this big increase in the fine is fair? Share your thoughts below.

Combining biking with bus travel

Sue from Brooklyn

Hi neighbours
Anyone out there who, like me, would love to bike more, but have difficulty getting their bike on the rack on the bus ? It's sometimes necessary, so as to avoid steep hills and roads where I don't feel safe.
Metlink say their drivers aren't meant to help.
