Howick Botany Neighbourhood Street Coordinators
Please join us at our AGM on Wednesday 14th April 2021 at Willowbank School (56 Middlefield Drive) in their staffroom at 7.30pm, if you are, or would like to be, a Howick Botany Neighbourhood Street Coordinator.
There is no pressure to fill any positions, as the current committee is happy to restand, but we are always looking for new ideas and new committee members are very welcome. We would love to see you at the meeting and have some New World vouchers, that have kindly been donated by New World Howick, to give away. Light refreshments will also be available.
Hoping to see you there.
Cheers
Shelley (Secretary / Treasurer)

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?
-
59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
