Donating to Salvation army shop Lower hutt think about it

Karl from Alicetown

Think about donating to other places as well as Sal army shop Lower hutt This shop dumps a huge amount of stuff. Dont see much effort to recycle. Most electrical item go in to bin because they have no one to check them. They could quite easily give this stuff to.Earthlink at Wingate. Or cut plugs off and sell as is . This is what wellington Tip shop often does.
They throw a huge amount of books away . Why not give them away. All Bicycles are dumped. Earthlink would recycle these
They dont care about sustainability. Keeping items out of landfill,
i realise they do get plain junk and need to dump it. However so much good stuff gets dumped. I have seen it happen and have herad it from people who have worked there.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Poll: Would you participate in local initiatives aimed at stopping plastic from reaching our oceans?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Volunteers will be scouring the foreshore, riverbanks, and islands for rubbish on Saturday the 13th as part of the Clean Up the Hutt event.

This initiative helps stop plastic from reaching our oceans and makes our waterways cleaner and safer for everyone.

We want to know: Should this be rolled out across all coastal cities in Aotearoa? And more importantly… would you get involved? 💚
