Changes ahead and contents for 12 December Orders
There are changes ahead,
Firstly Rata House is no longer a pick up option on the website as Public Health have moved into the city centre. So there are 2 pick up options Te Tihi and St Matthews.
Secondly this week Te Tihi also move into their new premises so pick up for orders will be from the new office. It is just around the corner from the old office but the entrance is off Broadway. The address is 200 Broadway just opposite the Catholic church and it is well signposted on the street. Their pick up time is still 1-3pm.
Thirdly Food Together Awapuni needs a new coordinator for 2020 as I am leaving-see the attachment. Perhaps this interests you or maybe a friend or family member is looking for a worthwhile volunteer opportunity? Please contact me if you are interested and want further information. We really want to see Food Together continue to thrive in the Manawatu.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.9% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.6% ... It is complicated
