Vote safe quiz

Adam from Chartwell

We all want compassion, dignity and choice
But is a potentially unsafe law good enough?

We all want compassion, dignity and choice
But is a potentially unsafe law good enough?
From 3-17 October, we are all asked to vote in a binding referendum for or against the End of Life Choice Act. We’re being asked to vote on a specific law (not whether or not we agree with the ‘concept’ of assisted dying). This means that every New Zealander is expected to ‘think like a lawyer’ to understand the implications of this specific law when they vote.

Votesafe.nz will help you know what the Act says – and importantly, what it doesn’t say, before you vote. Take the quick quiz to see how much you know about what you're being asked to vote on. Click on this link : www.votesafe.nz...

We have high standards and our bakers do too, which is why there are multiple quality checks in place at the bakery and only the best looking buns make the cut.

We use less than a teaspoon of sugar in each of the buns which gives them the colour and texture that makes them perfect for burgers.

Painters privilege

Adam from Adam's Painting

I have come to understand that the role I have as a tradesman painter is a real privilege. As people trust me to redecorate their rooms, I'm given access to a short window of opportunity in getting to understand their world, their family and how they live. It's a real privilege and one I … View moreI have come to understand that the role I have as a tradesman painter is a real privilege. As people trust me to redecorate their rooms, I'm given access to a short window of opportunity in getting to understand their world, their family and how they live. It's a real privilege and one I don't hold lightly. Sometimes it feels as if I'm part of the family, like when this 6-year-old was very keen to help me paint the family ceiling. She did a great job and I'm planning to sign her up for an apprenticeship (in about 12 years time!)
