AUCKLAND FAMILY HISTORY EXPO 8 & 9 AUGUST 2020
Hi Everyone - the Auckland Family History Expo is going to be held again on the Saturday 8th and Sunday 9th of August 2020.
It will still be at the Fickling Centre, Mt. Roskill (across from Three Kings School) and will be slightly different this year due to COVID. Saturday 9:00 to 6:00 and Sunday 9:00 to 5:00.
Our overseas speakers will not be there in person but will be via a Zoom meeting, therefore you can see the presentation and also ask questions.
Other speakers from NZ will be attending and for a full programme please look up Events on the Auckland Public LIbrary website.
Otherwise the show will be as usual with interesting talks, presentations and a hall full of exhibitors with their new wares etc.
So come along and join in the fun ITS FREE!
See you all there.
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.6% ... It is complicated
