Makerspace for young people 15-25 / donation requests

Laura from Bishopdale

Hi everyone,
I volunteer at a makerspace at the city YMCA called the 4C centre. We have 3D printers, CNC machines, a laser cutter, an audio/visual creation suite, electronics, and all the tech you could imagine!
We are still new and getting a feel for our direction- we welcome new members (just a $20 one off fee!) and run classes on all the tech with the help of our volunteers.
We are looking for donations of materials to use in our projects. I’m wondering whether anyone on neighbourly has ideas of organisations we could ask - even off-cuts or spare bits would be appreciated. We have a whole workshop set up and so many inspired youth but art and creation has to start somewhere!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

I'm sure you've seen it while doing your weekly shop... In fact, it may have even been you.

What do you think about people heading to the supermarket in their pyjamas?

Poll: Should employees be able to work from home?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

At the post-Cabinet press conference, the National Party asserted they want public sector staff to return to the office. This has opened a conversation about other sectors in New Zealand who have adopted working from home (WFH).

Where possible, do you think employees should be able to work from home? Vote below and share your thoughts in the comments.
