Give us a Helping Hand!

Mitre 10 Mega Nelson

This coming Thursday, August the 16th, join us, NMIT and members of the community at Kellys Bush in Enner Glynn Road for another great Mitre 10 MEGA Nelson Helping Hands Project.

This is a priceless piece of NZ Native bush, home to the rare Nelson Green Gecko, and the Parera duck. We will be improving their habitat by planting trees, doing some landscaping and some building.

Call Murray on 5470887 or email murray.leaning@meganelson.co.nz if you want to help.

There will be a dawn blessing at 6.30am, and we will provide an awesome BBQ lunch and drinks. Bring boots, rainwear and a spade or grubber if you have one.

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?
