Volunteers Needed
Digital Seniors is excited to be arriving on Auckland’s North Shore.
Do you have 2-3 hours a week and want to help the seniors in
your community feel empowered and connected?
Join a motivated team of volunteer coaches in our community to
provide digital coaching to seniors. You do not need to be a tech expert, if you can use a smartphone, laptop or tablet we can support you with the rest. A second language would be awesome so we can reach more of our seniors in the community. A big heart to help seniors, a great sense of humour and the ability to patiently listen are the qualities we are looking for. Does this sound like you?

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.5% ... It is complicated

Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
