I have an unusual request. I need people - "rentacrowd".

Kyra from Fitzroy

Today, (7/12) a very special couple have been married 72 years!!!

The wife is seriously ill and can't leave her bed... so to help cheer her up and to celebrate their anniversary, I'm inviting all of you - yes all of you - to come and sing Christmas carols on their front lawn tonight.

We will meet at 7.15pm on Mount View Rd near Heather Place. We will then walk together to their house and sing for about 15 minutes accompanied by the Salvation Army band.

Please share this invite with anyone you think might be interested and particularly those who live in the area.

If anyone can't find us on the night, my number is 027 2853625.

Thanks!
Carla

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

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

Derelict Tokanui Hospital site in line for a clean-up

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Derelict Tokanui Hospital buildings will be demolished and contaminated land cleaned up so the site can be offered back to iwi.

The former psychiatric hospital, southeast of Te Awamutu, sits on land taken from Ngāti Maniapoto under the Public Works Act in 1910.
