Work for the disabled Northland

Glen from Central Whangarei

I was hoping to be able to bring my wheelchair to the Orchard tomorrow 6th May I want to get the hot desking underway I have major disabilities so may need some help and some flexibility from the Orchard.
Just to refresh I run a business Website Design Whangarei. I do not get enough work. I have airway and voice issues so may be puffed and not speak well when answering the phone at home, this makes it hard to get customers.
I am hoping hot-desking at the Orchard and the chance to market with like minded people will give me the opportunity to progress.

I am doing the pick at the Orchard 8 weeks in I have not missed a class. I am putting in the effort.

I am very involved at community level currently Chairman of DPA Northland and Co-Chair of WDC disability advisory group.

Also looking forward to seeing what's happening in The Strand in the CBD with CTN

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.
