Poll: Do you know a young person looking for a job?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

When Carmen Sutherland lost her job because the company she worked for shut down, she never expected she would be made redundant again less than a year later.

The twenty two-year-old was left out of work when her employer, Godfreys, went into liquidation last year. But shortly after finding a new job at a furniture store, disaster struck again for Sutherland.

Many of the city's younger residents are struggling to find full-time work, faced with more people competing for a smaller number of roles.

Have you been to Hamilton Gardens lately?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton will soon offer a portal to a medieval ‘hospital’, without the stress of the bubonic plague.

The Medieval Gardens will open next year at Hamilton Gardens, with much of the work already done.
