THE CHERRY BLOSSOM FESTIVAL IS ON TODAY - Sunday 22nd Sept. – 11.30am to 3.00pm.

Mel from Stepneyville

You will be pleased to learn the Cherry Blossom Festival is on today at Miyazu Gardens & marks the 17th anniversary of the Festival being held in Nelson.
This is our special Springtime Celebration and exposure to Japanese culture, food, music and dance – it’s a celebration, of the gift of the Cherry Blossom Tree and the arrival of spring. In Japanese Culture the cherry blossom is a symbol of the beauty and the transience of life.
This is a great event, it provides a wonderful opportunity, for us all, to come together & to better understand the people who contribute to the diversity of our city. This is a free, happy, family event.

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?
