Beginner Sewing Class at Heretaunga Women's Centre needs supplies 2019
This is still proving to be a very popular class so our needs for supplies continues especially for buttons, zips, cottons (any amount left on the reel is useful), iron-on stiffening and scissors as we continue to use the lovely donated fabrics. The latest creations include dresses, bags, cushion covers, shirts, tunic tops and even a lovely apron.
You are also welcome to join us on a Wednesday morning or even call in to see what we are doing and all that is on offer at Heretaunga Women's Centre. They have lovely clean toilets there for women to use and a great nursery if you are a Mum who needs a wee break in a space where your child can play, and where you can also feed or change your child in a clean and comfy environment.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
