📣 CALLING ALL COUNTIES MANUKAU SUPPORTERS! 📣

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

Otara Neighbourhood Support + Otara Health Charitable Trust are looking for winter warmers to support the many families that find themselves without adequate heating over winter. The households they work with have some of the coldest homes which leads to high rates of sickness. Blankets are one of the most useful and needed items during this time.

Please get in touch if you have any warm and clean preloved blankets to pay it forward to those in need in Otara and Counties wide.

Donations can be made to Michelle Simiona: 022 103 1887 or by messaging through their Facebook page at the link provided.

Tēnā rawa atu koe, thanks for your support!

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.
