Urgent Accommodation Needed
Accommodation is urgently needed for a young man from overseas in Christchurch for several surgeries starting this week. He is accompanied by his mother and older brother, and previous plans have fallen through. The home would need to have 2 bedrooms available. Ideally, it would be needed for around 12 months as there will be two surgeries, each needing 6 months rehabilitation. However, short-term would be okay as a stop-gap.
The family are quietly spoken, and can give references. Somewhere on the north side of the city would be helpful, but anything will be considered. If you can help, or recommend a contact, please contact me at 022 384 7466.

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?

59.4% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
