Neighbours' Day Aotearoa 2022
Heads up for NDA 2022. The theme for next year is Celebrating Community, Sharing Food. Everyone is encouraged to connect through kai e.g. sharing a cuppa, fresh produce, a recipe or hosting a picnic or BBQ. You can start now by sharing a recipe using an online form at neighboursday.org.nz or emailing to kiaora@neighboursday.org.nz. This could be a whanau favourite, your aunty's special chutney or your most loved cake. NDA will then share your recipe throughout the land for people to try, share and enjoy within their communities. You can post your recipe too, to P O Box 1 Paparoa, 0543. Share a recipe, share kai.
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?
-
60.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.8% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
