Election and the Virus

Grant from Raureka

Is it time to consider cancelling this year's election (do we want hundreds of people getting together in one place such as voting places, touching the same pens etc) - should the Government consider forming an all party coalition to run the country until the crisis is over and then go into … View moreIs it time to consider cancelling this year's election (do we want hundreds of people getting together in one place such as voting places, touching the same pens etc) - should the Government consider forming an all party coalition to run the country until the crisis is over and then go into election mode?? Personally I can't see the point of an election when it;s likely to spread the virus through a huge amount of contact between people - I also believe that all parties could have some good input into how to handle the situation with the virus and the economy - put aside party politics for a time and have a combined government (small G) with consensus decisions. Back to petty bickering after a vaccine is found!

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Does anyone have anybody have any old wooden crates, beer crates or similar they don’t need. I’m still trying to sort out clothing storage in an odd shaped and sized space.

Offers of help during Covid 19

Chris from Akina

If you have read the current notices you will see that people about the country are placing offers of help for those in a self containment situation or in a situation because of the consequences of this pandemic.
BEWARE.
Many are non vetted. Some may not be or do what they claim. This is cruel.

If you have read the current notices you will see that people about the country are placing offers of help for those in a self containment situation or in a situation because of the consequences of this pandemic.
BEWARE.
Many are non vetted. Some may not be or do what they claim. This is cruel.

I suggest that the genuine ones will have good feedback from community posted here. If unsure seek more suitable connections, ask questions or phone others.

If there is anyone co-ordinating assistance in your area, review the posts or call them to discuss.

Take care everyone.

- it is not necessary for you to be present if this is preferable

I currently would fill them at least twice over... When I spoke to someone at the Council to see whether it was possible to purchase additional bins I was advised that this isn't possible right now, however, they will be open to feedback on this. So please, once you've been issued the bins and if you find them insufficient, give the Council feedback, either by phone, online or in person. Many thanks

Knowledge Bank Open Day

Grant from Raureka

Unfortunately the Open Day has been cancelled - It's basically outside and not too crowded but KB is erring on the side of caution given the age of many of those expected to visit and of the volunteers
