Fund raiser
Hello
My name is Gwyn upritchard
I live in Appleby Invercargill.
I would like help to organise a fund raising and awareness walk.
I would like to do a 57km walk as :
An awareness of “Give blood save lives”
Raise money for the haemophillia Foundation.
The walk would be circuits around the sports ground between Ythan & Connon streets (650 metres per circuit).
The time /distance would be recorded on my Garmin Instinct watch.
If we could get some sponsors for prizes run a sweepstake for everyone that donates to the fundraising to Guess the time taken to walk the 57Km.
The time range would be between 8 & 10 hours.
I am 57 years old a Km for each year to get the 57 Km.
I would not be alive if it was not for the NZ blood service , as I had to have a blood transfusion as a Neo natal baby.
I myself am a blood donor.
I have not actually walked the 57 Km before.
When I was 46 years old I cycled 234Km over Arthurs pass in 13 hours so used to endurance.
Are you willing to help please.
Kind regards
Gwyn upritchard

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?
-
60.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
23.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.6% ... It is complicated

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.
Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.
We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
-
9.7% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.2% I want to be able to choose.
-
47.1% Against. I want to deal with people.
