Karori Lions recent E-Waste Recycling Day
Karori Lions wish to thank our community, and those from neighbouring communities, for your generosity. Last Saturday we ran our twice-yearly e-waste drop off collection at the Karori Community Centre, which proved to be as popular as ever. While volumes were not markedly up, many customers were exceptionally generous with the donations they made in return for leaving their unwanted electronic goods with us. All net proceeds from Lions projects are returned to the community. A double whammy here was that the company ultimately receiving the goods was Recycling for Charity, who make a contribution to charities from their profits derived from refurbishing or recycling the goods (in a guaranteed data secure and environmentally sound manner).

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.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
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: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
