Covid-19 Alert Level update

Seamus Boyer from Wellington City Council

Kia ora Pōneke, from midday on Wednesday 12 August, Wellington, along with most of New Zealand, will be re-entering Covid-19 Alert Level 2. This will last until midnight on Friday.

It follows the news that in Auckland there are four positive cases of COVID-19 from an unknown source. The Auckland Region will move to Alert Level 3 for the same period.

Here's what we all can do to help:

- Continue or get back to stringent hand hygiene, sneeze and cough into your elbow.​
- If you or a family member are unwell please stay at home and contact Healthline or your GP about getting a test.​
- Practise physical distancing of two metres wherever possible.​
- Consider wearing a mask in public spaces or places where it is hard to physically distance.​

​For more information on health advice or the Alert Levels, please go to: covid19.govt.nz...

We will be updating the Council website and social channels tomorrow. Be kind and stay safe, Wellington. We're all in this together. 💛🖤💛🖤

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?
