Volunteers needed!
I currently need participants for my PhD study. I am looking for healthy people to come in to my office in Christchurch CBD for around an hour, on two occasions, to complete some pen and paper activities with me (fun ones according to previous participants!). Please note that you cannot have had a mental health diagnosis at any point to take part in this study (e.g. depression).
This is a volunteer opportunity, but you will also receive $50 petrol vouchers as a thank you for your time and travel. Additionally, you can feel good knowing you are giving your time towards mental health research!
If you are interested please email me at zoe.barczyk@postgrad.otago.ac.nz , or visit the website listed, as I will need to send you an information sheet to read over and go through some screening questions.
Thanks 🙂

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
