Looking to have a clear out? Or looking for a bargain?
Get involved in the Daffodil Car Boot Sale and help out the Taranaki Cancer Society at the same time as part of our Daffodil celebrations.
The Car Boot Sale will be on Saturday 7 August, from 8am to Midday, at the Taranaki Cancer Society, 71 Lorna Street, Strandon, New Plymouth.

Spots available:
* Car Park - $10 - Car park provided. Please bring your own table/chairs/shelter (please note: Shelter must fit within the car park to avoid impeding on the space of others)
* Indoor - $20 - includes a table, chairs and shelter. Cars will need to be parked on the road.

If you wish to pre-book your space, please contact cassie.rowe@cancercd.org.nz or book through events.humanitix.com...

Looking for a bargain? Entry is free, but any koha towards the Cancer Society is greatly appreciated. The Cancer Society will also have a stall and all funds raised from that stand will go directly to the Cancer Society.

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?
