Christmas - A time for Giving
Hi, Kevin again from St Vincent de Paul. Chrissy is a good time of the year to look around home at what you do not need/want anymore. We will pick up clean W/M to Fridge/freezers, to tables and chairs, to beds and linen, Kitchen items, even knives forks and spoons etc. Due to "difficult times" alot of families in New Plymouth do not have these item. Are you able to assist?
We pick up and deliver free of charge to anyone referred to us from one of over 20 social agencies in New Plymouth. Our Op Shop in Fitzroys also takes quality small items like clothing, books nick-nacks etc, to sell to support our work. Ph Kevin (027) 251-9998 or email: kevinvincentdepaul1@gmail.com
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
