Naenae Cafe

Lynley from Waiwhetu

I am a regular at the new Naenae cafe on the corner of Everest Ave and Hilary Court opposite the swimming pool. I love that place and obviously others do too...see the comment below. The coffee is always superb and the staff really friendly.

What really impresses me is that it has been set up to help ex-prisoners from Arohata assimilate back into the community by getting them working. It is a wonderful initiative and really well done.

I am writing this because they deserve to be patronised. Please note I don't think they are open in the weekend, definitely not on Sunday, not sure about Saturday. Pay them a visit and see for yourself.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
