What do you think about helping people into homes this way?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

With home ownership slipping further out of reach for many, Bridge Housing Trust has stepped up as a de facto Bank of Mum and Dad.

The housing charity is in its early years but delivered 40 affordable homes last year and wants to double that in 2025.

The trust, chaired by Perry, is donating the 1800m² land, valued at $4 million, and investing another $16m to build a complex of 42 affordable apartments, Hinemoa, in Hamilton’s CBD.

Ashleigh from The Neighbourly Riddler

but no feet,
I make my living by bringing the heat.
What am I?
