Helen Neighbourly Lead from Dinsdale

The Refugee Orientation Centre Trust (ROC) has three desks suitable for office or study, in good working order. We are seeking a donation to our organisation in exchange for these desks, that can be viewed and collected from our rooms in Kent Steet, Frankton.

Dimensions:
Desk 2: 680 deep x 745 high x 1220 long

Desk 3: 685 deep x 740 high x 1500 long

Desk 4: 900 deep x 710 high x 1500 long.


As seen in the photos these desks are strong and could even be great for a workshop. The desks are available for collection in the New Year.

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?
