West Auckland Resource Centre in New Lynn
Dear Neighbours,
The West Auckland Resource Centre is a small volunteer organization in Seabrook Ave New Lynn. We collect recycled materials and make these available to school and ECE teachers! Currently we are looking for some more volunteers on our opening days which is
Saturday 10-12 pm or Wednesday 12-2 pm. You can either help us by doing a duty, by coming to one of our working bees or by helping with the collection of the resources. Please ring Marjo 022-6779131 if you can help.
Also I wanted to let everyone know that our resource Centre's AGM will be 25th of May at 12 pm. Please contact Marjo for the venue if you are interested
Thank you very much: )

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?
-
59.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?
The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟
While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.
We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
-
81.7% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
18.3% No. This would be impossible in practice.
Chinese New Year!
Happy Chinese New Year everyone!🎊
