If you are a busy parent; have someone else to do the vacuuming
If you are retired and want to share your skills informally with keen learners; you can
If your budget is tight but you could do with pampering: you can
If you are new to town: make new friends
If you are job seeking: learn new skills and make contacts
If you don't have whānau close by to support; let our community members tautoko
If you simple home repairs to do, have someone can fix it for you
If you want to pay it forward but at times that work for you, you can
How?
By trading skills and experience for time, rather than money via TaranakiTimeBank.
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.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
