Ethan's life was surrounded by drugs and alcohol due to gang-affiliated friends and family. But after losing loved ones, he joined a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme. Initially hesitant and shy, he gradually gained confidence, showed his humour and found his voice.

The programme helped him explore different career paths and Ethan became one of the top graduates from his cohort. The Foundation took the opportunity to hire him and he now helps other young people involved in the programme on their career journeys.

Sandbags

Adam from Birkenhead

We desperately need some sandbags to stop our garage flooding (again!!). Repeated calls to the council only got the response "we're not authorised to allow that".

Repeated calls to the council only got the response "we're not authorised to allow that". If the council can't help even in such a minimal way to *prevent* flooding before it happens, then I wonder why we "authorise" our banks to pay rates. Does anyone know where we can obtain sandbags (preferably free)?

I've tried Mitre10 and Bunnings. Trademe has some but they're expensive. Any ideas, folks?

Hello neighbours, im reaching out in the hopes someone much more knowledgeable can point me in the right direction!

I'd like to turn my basement into some sort of a hobby room/workshop area. Rather annoyingly though there is what i can only guess is some sort of reinforcing in the form of soil.

First of all i would like to know if it's possible to remove the soil and in it's place replace it with some sort of concrete reinforcing.
Secondly, if that is even possible what sort of work would be required? Is it a matter of concrete reinforcing in the form of spray-on concrete or would it be steel rods with concrete etc.

Thank you :)
