It’s being staged in the intimate setting of Uxbridge Arts and Culture Theatre in Howick, 4pm to 6pm.

The Bridge will present Davey Jo South, Steve Edwards and Justin Deveraux talking about the stories behind their original songs, new and old, and their creative writing processes. They’ll also play live, too.

All three are at different stages in recording their works and releasing them publicaly, but one thing is clear that they have in common – they’re always song writing.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.
