Special Valentine's Day lunch

Reporter Community News

Married for 59 years, Joan and Tony Watling say laughter has kept them together for so
long. The pair were one of fifteen couples treated to a Valentine’s Day lunch at Bupa Fergusson Care Home in Upper Hutt with a theme of ‘Celebrating Love’. 
With a setting of red tablecloths and rose place mats, the special Valentine’s lunch menu included shrimp cocktail and bubbles for the couples. Joan says they hadn’t enjoyed a Valentine’s lunch together for quite a while and so found the treat ‘rather special’.
The couple are originally from Wainuiomata.

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?
