Lap the Map for Diabetes is Saturday 16 November
Thank you to the 280 people who participated. We were able to add 168km to the nationwide total.
November is Diabetes Awareness Month, and New Zealand's Lions Clubs are calling all New Zealanders to help them "Lap the Map" for diabetes awareness. Can you help us walk a combined distance surpassing the perimeter of the NZ coastline (15,000km)
Our Lions Club will be hosting a family friendly walk of the New Brighton Pier on Saturday 16 November 2024 and you can join in the fun anytime between 10am and 2pm - don't worry you can do as many trips to the end of the Pier as you like. Your total km will all contribute to the ultimate goal.
We are not asking for money to participate but donations can be given if you wish.
Diabetes is a growing problem in New Zealand, so let's do what we can to prevent and research Diabetes and more importantly to raise awareness.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
