Donations wanted

Dornae Ray from Te Ara Poutama Alternative Education Centre

Hi. I am needing donations of feminine products, razors, soap, shampoo, conditioner, deodorants, toothpaste, toothbrushes and new socks if anyone can help out. I work in an alternative education centre with 90 students and personal hygiene is often passed over because most of these kids live on the poverty line. We have awesome support from kids can and eat my lunch so we are able to feed them but would like to help them in other ways. Our students are aged 13-17 years. Donations can be dropped off to 3 different points between 9am and 2pm or if you PM me I can collect.

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? πŸ›»πŸš¨πŸš“

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
