U3A General Meeting
Next General meeting October Wednesday 14th 1,30pm Brooklands Church Bideford St
Guest Speaker Trish Rankin , NZ Dairy Woman of the Year 2019 and recent Kellogg Rural Leaders Scholar will paint the picture as to why NZ is the possible to the 'impossible' customer. The consumers that buy alternative plant based protein want better outcomes for their health, planet and animals, NZ is in a prime position to achieve this. Trish will also discuss the concept of Circular Economy, the journey NZ is taking on this and how she is applying it to the rural sector. Hope to see you all along……lockdowns permitting!

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
