My name is Sarah McLean-Orsborn and I am currently a PhD student at the University of Auckland. My research is looking to understand how Samoan women have been impacted by COVID-19 this year. The goal for this research is to not only understand how COVID-19 has impacted our Samoan women, but also to find ways to support our Samoan women in times of crises. I have attached the participant information sheet, as well as my flyer for you to look through as well as share to your networks if possible.
My questionnaire is open to:
• Samoan women in Samoa and throughout the diaspora (NZ, Australia, across the Pacific, UK, USA etc.)
• 16 years and older
• Have been directly/indirectly impacted by COVID-19 (you don't need to have been diagnosed with COVID-19 to share your experiences)
Please feel free to participate if you meet the criteria and/or share this with your networks or anyone who you think fits the criteria and would like to help with my research!
Fa'afetai tele lava and I look forward to sharing progress with you!

Did you know Cancer Society Auckland provides free psychological support for cancer patients, and their whānau, as they go through their cancer journey? Just one of the many practical ways we’re there for people with cancer.
Hope all cars on the Mount Albert road from Honolulu cafe up until three kings are safe as saw one lunatic wearing a yellow tshirt running on the pavement banging either a stick or something like a belt on cars and fencing in the neighborhood.
Hello neighbors,
I live in Glen Eden. I'm looking for someone who can remove weed from my backyard and loosen up the soil to help me grow the lawn. Can anyone out there do it for me or suggest someone who can. I have a budget in mind, but happy to get quotes.

Five years of City Rail Link work has come to fruition at the intersection of Albert St and Wolfe St in Auckland's CBD.
Digging up the busy city street for rail tunnels took longer than expected and caused hardship for businesses in the area, said City Rail Link Ltd chief executive Dr Sean Sweeney.
"There have been robust discussions over the years, but we have worked hard with local businesses to find suitable solutions to offset impacts when work fell behind schedule including the introduction of rent assistances scheme for those who qualified,” said Sweeney.
“We hope we are leaving behind a rejuvenated and transformed street.”
Work began in late 2015 on the city rail link section at the lower end of Albert St.
A trench was excavated down the middle of Albert St between Customs St and Wyndham St to build the project’s twin underground tunnels 350-metres long.
At Commercial Bay they connected with the tunnel built from Britomart Station.
Construction also involved relocating an important stormwater line and strengthening a section of a large sewer main.
Tunnel construction finished in mid-2019 and Albert St was back filled up to road level.
Street beautifying followed – building wider pavements, installing new street furniture and lighting, planting native trees and creating bus bays to upgrade public transport.
Sweeney says the end to the work at the lower end of Albert Street is an important milestone.
“Historically it is where CRL’s construction began, but when you look ahead it’s a timely reminder that CRL is a transformational project for the whole of Auckland."
"Alongside that city-wide view we have a commitment to leave a positive legacy locally where we have had to put our spades into the ground.“
Meanwhile, work is continuing from the Wyndham St intersection to extend the city rail link further south along Albert St to join the new Aotea underground station in the city centre.
