From the organisers:

"When the protesters leave, we will be here. We will put Wellington back together again.

What’s the plan?

So far, we have permission from the Speaker of Parliament, but we’re waiting on mana whenua to decide how best to proceed. We don’t know when the protesters will be gone, so we will do our best to be ready to go when they are.

Sign-up, and we’ll email you as soon as we’re able to move in.

The current plan is for a volunteer crew to move in to clear out rubbish and other waste to make the area safe for a larger ceremony to proceed. Masks and social distancing will be observed.

Our Goals: This is not a counter-protest, or directed at the protesters at all. This is something we are doing for our community, for each other.

Be Strong: The heart of our community hasn’t changed. We are still committed to taking care of each other and upholding our shared values. That is our strength, and we want reaffirm it.

Restore: We want to restore Parliament Grounds as a public space for all, and to make the surrounding spaces feel safe again."

Please direct any questions to the contact person: Keith Ng at admin@bigcleanup.org.nz

SPCA Pet of the Day: Luke the Rabbit

Just before Christmas, five rabbits were found in a box in a Levin, left to fend for themselves with no home and no family. Four rabbits quickly became 11 after one gave birth to seven baby rabbits!

"I was born in SPCA's care after my mum was left in a box on the steps of SPCA Levin. Now I am here at SPCA Wellington looking for a forever home and a second chance at happiness.
All I've known is life in SPCA's care and now my caregivers want to find me a home to call my own and where I can binky, run and play to my heart's content. I may not look like your average domestic rabbit (you can blame my dad's genes for that!), but I have a sweet personality that I'd love to share with my loving family! I would love a home with a female rabbit to be friends with. I will need a secure outdoor pen for daytime, and an indoor space for nighttime so I can be a part of the family."
