Le Roy's Picnic Photo at Birkenhead Library

John Gillon from

Danielle Grant, Melanie Jane Kenrick and I were privileged to attend the unveiling of the Le Roy's Picnic Photo at Birkenhead Library, followed by a talk on the history of the Le Roy family in Birkenhead, and the origins of Le Roy's Bush Reserve.
Make sure you stop to have a look at the photo at the Birkenhead Library foyer the next time you are nearby. An information sign will be added in the future.
A huge thankyou to Birkenhead Library Manager Ania Biazik and library staff, Keith Salmon and Friends of Le Roys Bush, Margaret Peacocke and other family and friends of the Le Roy family.

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?
