Spending Christmas alone? Want some free lunch, or to volunteer to help the homeless?
If you don't have plans for Christmas day, or you'll be spending the day alone, there's still plenty of room at the table for the Rotary Community Christmas Dinner, starting at 11:30 at the Beachside Conference Centre in Tāhunanui. Call ahead on the Christmas phone (022 514 3135) to save yourself a spot and let them know of any dietary needs.
If giving back is more your style, check out Giving Aroha in ANZAC park's facebook page to see if there are any volunteer roles still needing to be filled, or come along for the day with whatever koha you can afford.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

-
0% No, individuals should take responsibility
