Our Annual Street Appeal this year will be held from 27th February – 05th March and I invite you to support our appeal by giving up two hours of your time to collect of us on either Thursday 02nd or Friday 03rd March.
Our sites will be open between 8:30am and 5pm.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
