Hello Neighbours, the Team is Back!
Hi everyone, and thanks to the Neighbourly team for the offer of a premium business listing for Revolution Bikes!
We really appreciate the opportunity to spread the word about our bike shop. Being closed during Level 4 was a painful exercise, so like many local businesses we're reaching out to our community now that we can trade again. We've had lots of messages from locals during the shut down and we are so pleased to be able to help everyone again now in Level 3.
I'll make a seperate post about how we're operating under level 3, but for now just wanted to sign off with a big 'Hi' and leave you with a photo of some of the team, that I love, it was taken by one of our regular local riders Adrien J. and originally posted on our Instagram page (@revolutionbikesnz)
As you can probably tell the photo was taken in pre-covid19 days - back when we could hang out shoulder to shoulder. We miss that life!
Signing off
Billie Sue @ Revolution Bikes
Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜
