Clothing buy, swap and donate - self service
Yay I have put out on my front porch some clothes and shoes. A few items are priced (shoes mainly) but all other items are donation OR swap. Sizes mainly 14 -20 but there are a few smaller items. Shoes of all sizes available. All funds raised go to a local (Lower Hutt) charitable trust called Greenstone Doors. Visit www.greenstonedoors.co.nz... to find out more. Just put any donation in one of the paper bags provided and put it in our letterbox (no space under the door sorry). We are at 23 Burnside Street, Waterloo. Can I ask that if you are going to donate any clothes that they be clean and in good condition and that you leave the garment rack tidy? Many thanks in advance for your support of women and their whanau.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
