Classic dining table and six chairs

Ken from Cashmere

This lovingly cared-for, reproduction round Victorian Pedestal Dining Table and six mahogany, balloon back, dining chairs were crafted in Christchurch. A highly prized wedding present, in the late 1970s, from my parents. Characteristic of this romantic period in British design history, this setting works perfectly to create that classic dining room charm and or fit perfectly into an eclectic modern setting. Featuring beautifully carved detailing, solid wood, and turned pedestal with elegantly sculptured legs that curve down to the exquisite brass footings. The recently, refurbished chairs seats with tasteful, velvet upholstered are stylish and comfortable. All in good-excellent condition. The separate tabletop and base make for easy transport, delivery, and assembling. Owners are downsizing and moving to be with our family overseas. Available to view in Cashmere. Can provide transport for a local buyer.

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?
