π£ CALLING ALL COUNTIES MANUKAU SUPPORTERS! π£
Otara Neighbourhood Support + Otara Health Charitable Trust are looking for winter warmers to support the many families that find themselves without adequate heating over winter. The households they work with have some of the coldest homes which leads to high rates of sickness. Blankets are one of the most useful and needed items during this time.
Please get in touch if you have any warm and clean preloved blankets to pay it forward to those in need in Otara and Counties wide.
Donations can be made to Michelle Simiona: 022 103 1887 or by messaging through their Facebook page at the link provided.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.8% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
24.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.8% ... It is complicated

Night-time chipsealing works on SH2
From 9 to 17 February, stop/go traffic management will be in place on SH2 between McPherson Road and Dimmock Road on multiple nights between 9pm and 5am (Sundays to Thursdays).
During the day, all lanes will be open, but speed restrictions will apply to allow the chipseal to set and to protect vehicles travelling over the newly laid surface.
There may be delays to your journey when travelling through the area. This is weather dependent so check NZTA Journey Planner before you travel.
