Stronger Together
These past couple of weeks have been a trying one for many Kiwis, here at Beds4U we are dedicated to be there at the heart of the community and support with any sleep essential requirements where needed. We are sending our thoughts and love to all our fellow Kiwis affected by the recent devastating flooding in Auckland. Things can get overwhelming, so rest up and know that we’re here to do everything to provide our community with restful nights sleep.
In order to help our community, we’ve got a warehouse stocked up with all sizes of beds to assist anyone in need of urgent bedding solutions. We’re also offering further discounts to those who are impacted by the recent incident. Simply inform our staff at the counter of your situation and they'll take care of you and your needs!
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?
-
60.1% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
88.5% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
11.5% No. This would be impossible in practice.
