Woodall Park Pump Track Working Bee

Libby Boyd from Devonport Rotary Club

Have fun and meet like-minded people by helping to build the exciting new Pump Track for our community and kids.

If you can spare some time this Saturday 20th between 8 am and 1 pm at Woodall Park. Your help will be greatly appreciated plus you can get to check out the progress .

Your task will be to receive the metal and spread it using rakes and shovels, we don’t think it will be too onerous! Maybe bring along a sturdy garden rake, a square mouthed shovel and a light wheelbarrow (only if you can easily get it there), a hat and some sunscreen.

We also have the use of 3 bobcats and experienced operators who will pick up and dump the metal from the stockpile into the geogrid which we have been placing over the last few days.

Josie Wang from Narrowneck Café, has very generously provided vouchers for our use for those working on the project. There will be one voucher available per family on the day.

Many hands make light work.

You might also like to donate to the Givealittle page which has been set up to help fund this project.

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?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
