Stolen Copper Sculpture
Help, this morning two thieves stole a precious memento from from my garden. Can anyone provide any information to help me get it back?
Missing: a copper ‘cooker’ coil that my husband, Keith, purchased from his employer, Cadbury, when they closed his old place of work, the Pascals sweet factory in Rosebank Road, Avondale in 2009.
Location of theft: View Road, Henderson, West Auckland. Thieves spotted the sculpture at 4:15am and came back and collected it at 5:35am, see photos.
Keith died of Motor Neurone Disease in 2022. And this memento means as much to me as it did to him. The sculpture has been in two of our gardens for the last 15 years and I want it back.
If you have any information please get in touch.
Please share this post if you think you have any friends who may be able to help. Thank you 🙏
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!
-
26.2% 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?
-
79.4% Community feedback and transparency is needed.
-
20.6% No. This would be impossible in practice.
