Change of President.
The Northland Coastguard Air Patrol (NorthCAP), based at the Kerikeri Airport, held their AGM last Sunday, and members elected Willie Morton as their new President, in lieu of Murray Miskelly who stood down after 4 years of service in the post. However, Murray is definitely not leaving the unit as he accepted the role of V. Pres. and is still an active Search and Rescue volunteer pilot, also actively engaged in personally presenting a Business Plan he has created, to Coastguard, to persuade them to replace the Units aging Cessna aircraft, now reaching the end of its useful life. Look out for a Fund Raising Appeal later this year, and please give generously, The Life You Save May Be Your Own !!

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

60.3% Yes, supporting people is important!

24.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
