Auckland Council local boards have youth scholarships available for rangatahi!
Auckland Council local boards have youth scholarships available for rangatahi in our rohe. These grants can help towards tertiary and vocational training costs. One of our amazing Maaori Health staff, Terijean Murray, received one of these grants towards her studies.
"This scholarship gave me the motivation and confidence to complete my studies at University of Auckland. It reduce the financial pressures on myself and whaanau. It has also allowed me to create and foster new relationships and networks within my community."
Applications are open until 18 October! For more information on how you can tap into these scholarships, check the Auckland Council website and click on your area: bit.ly...
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
