Suprised

Louis from Pukekohe

Morning all - I wanted to share a quick story with you.
Last sunday a young man and his girlfriend broke down outside my property, and I went over to see if there was anything that I could do.

Turns out - he ran out of fuel. So I took him down to get some gas and he was having issues with his card. "I know what you are thinking - conveniently" anyway I paid for the gas and we got them back on the road.
I said to the young man, you know where I live, come drop off the cash. A few days went by, and to my surprise. He knocked on my door and handed me the cash.
All I have to say to this young man, Well Done - you are a credit to your family.

Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.
