Poll: Have you or has someone you know used the renal centre?

Libby Reporter from Waikato Local

A squash club has given way to a kidney centre at Waikato Hospital in a $44.4 million project that’s been called “mana affirming” for patients.

The Waikato Regional Renal Centre has brought over 100 clinical staff under one roof - kidney specialists, nurses, clinical nurse specialists for dialysis education and transplant, psychologists, kaitiaki, podiatrists, social workers, and dieticians.

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?
