When 198 (Youth Health) was closed back in 2010 CDHB promised all sorts of one-stop things for youth that never eventuated - (another organisation that has no idea where adults come from!). Almost a decade has passed, kids are falling through the cracks - time to show them the respect and care all people are due in a connected and caring society.
Now is the time for Ruth Dyson (and Labour) who had supportive words for Dr Sue Bagshaw and Youth Health in general back in 2010* to step up and help fast-track this much needed facility - let's see some real leadership.
Write to your MP and local councillors.
Meanwhile we as citizens can attend this concert and/or make donations to this excellent cause - tell your friends and networks.

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑
Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
