Covid update

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Unfortunately, it’s not looking good. RNZ has reported there are Delta cases in Wellington.

But we got this team. We’ve done it before, we can do it again. Let’s show the rest of the world how to do it right.

Masks up, sanitiser at the ready, and by now we all know how far 2 metres is.

And if you find you are struggling, you aren’t alone. Check up on each other.

If you see, or even have a feeling, that someone is struggling, reach out. Don’t just assume someone else will. That’s called diffusion of responsibility, and it’s, sadly, what leads to no one doing anything to help.

Even if you think someone else will help, offer. You may be the only one.

We are stronger, better, together apart.

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?
