northern community market

Stephanie from Redwood

Northern Community Market wish to thank our stall holders and our local communities who have supported the market since we started in November 2021.
We have donated $600.00 to our local schools.
$600.00 in Pac n Save and fuel vouchers to our community families.

Northern Community Market would like to be able to help out a lot more than we have this financial year. To do this, we need our local community to come and support the market.

Our next market is 2nd April.

We have:

Fruit and vegetables, coffee, muffins, scones, massage, art work, jewellery, crafts, bric a brac.

We even have a treat...a stall holder is doing a free sausage sizzle starting at mid-day, however I believe their trusty helper will out perform the BBQ (limited to 1 per person and limited amount of sausages)

If you want a fun day out, come and check out Northern Community Market at 340 Main North Road

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?

Addictive Eaters Anonymous

After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom

I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.

Poll: Do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? ☔⚠️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Press, the same low-pressure system that lashed the North Island over the weekend is now making its way south, bringing heavy rain and strong winds with it. It’s a soggy start to the week for many of us.

With more wild weather on the cards, we’re curious: do you have a go-to adverse-weather checklist for your family? Or are you more of a “grab the torches and hope for the best” household?
