FREE Self Defence for Women & Girls : Tue 25 May @ 7pm

Ruth from Orewa

The evening is aimed at Self Defence and giving women and girls the understanding and awareness of how a dangerous situation can arise. What opportunities and options are available to defend and defeat a would-be attacker. Also how to better prepare by understanding and education around such attacks to ensure you have predetermined the outcome by education.
The course is simple and straightforward and presented in a non-threating way to enable everyone to learn and take away some new skills and tools to help them feel safer and more confident.
It should be a fun and invigorating time for
all who participate.
The course is specifically designed for self-defence not fighting.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
