Government targeted relief
My sister is a Pensioner living in Wellsford. She has an appointment at North Shore Hospital tomorrow afternoon at 2.45pm. The 160km round trip would cost about $50 which is too expensive.

I do understand that not everyone can be accommodated in the relief, but just saying.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
