Meet in the middle community event this weekend

The Team from Citizens Advice Christchurch Area

Are you looking for something fun to do this weekend that's FREE and not too far to travel . 'Meet in the Middle’ on Saturday the 12th of October celebrates Te Ara Ōtākaro, the transitional city-to-sea Avon River Trail and its role in the regeneration of the east.

This is an opportunity for people to come along the trail on foot or bike from either direction (city or sea) and meet in the middle at Kerrs Reach for a riverside family fun day with kids activities, food, beverage and info stands, a multi-code exhibition regatta, as well as free live entertainment on stage 11-3pm with Anika Moa as the Headline Act .

If you want to know more about activities and events or you need help / advice on any matter why not pop in and see us at our weekly clinic. We are at The Loft every Tuesday 11am - 2pm .

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?
