Food Rescue Northland Whakaora Kai Taitokerau
Kia ora Whangarei (WANTING)
We are Food Rescue Northland, what we do is we rescue any food that is not good enough to sell due to dents in cans, veges are not pretty etc and we collect these to give back to our community agencies who provide food to individuals and families that are need of food. We also accept any food donated from individuals that may have an overflow of vegetables or fruits, or goods that are not being used in the pantry. We rescue food before it hits the landfill or pig farms. If you have any food you would like to donate we have two drop off areas, Whare Awhina Community Trust House, 155 Kamo Road, Kensington or the Food Rescue Warehouse, 1 Woods Road, Whangarei (The carpark of the old Chipmunks). We can also pick up. If you have a fruit tree with excess fruit we are happy to pick these and take away.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
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)
.
