Storm Recovery Navigators Drop-in session in Glenfield
Auckland Council’s Recovery Office will be hosting a drop-in event with their storm recovery navigators on Thursday from 11am-3pm at our Library.
These events are for any individuals, families and whānau who’ve been affected by the flood and landslides earlier this year in any way and need support.
At these free drop-ins, you can speak to one of our storm recovery navigators one-on-one about your situation. Our navigators are your first port of call. Whether you have questions about decisions being made about your home, your insurance situation, accessing financial assistance, or need support to deal with the emotional and mental toll, our navigators are here to connect you to the resources and information you need to navigate your way through the coming months and beyond.
Please spread the word if you know of any friends, family or whānau who may benefit from coming along.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
