Sandbag amnesty- help us build our raised wicking beds

Ellen Neighbourly Lead from Sandringham

You have too many sandbags? You want them to have a hood use when you no longer want them?
We need sand to build our raised self-wicking community garden.
If you have lots of bags to donate we may be able to come and pick them up.
If you have just a few we would love if you could drop them off at the Gribblehirst Hub, 5 Cabbage Tree Swamp Drive (go past the Rugby Club, simply drop off inside the chain in the left hand corner.
Pls mark them with a C if they have been subjected to contaminated water and we’ll sanitise/solarise the sand before using it.
Pls contact coordinator@ghub.nz for more information. Thanks for your support.
Here’s a photo of how we use it.

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

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?

Stolen Haro red mountain bike

Nadeesha from Epsom

My son’s red Haro mountain bike was stolen near Cornwall Park Avenue.
It was parked at our residence on 22nd January at around 8:00pm. We discovered it missing on 25th January at around 2:00pm.
If anyone living near Cornwall Park Avenue has CCTV footage between those dates and times, could you please check and let me know if you notice anything suspicious or see a red Haro mountain bike (photo attached)?
We would really appreciate any help. Please message me if you have any information.
Thank you so much.
