Volunteers Needed for exhibition at Coastlands
Final year students from the School of Architecture at Victoria University of Wellington are currently exhibiting their proposals for a Kapiti Island Visitor Centre at Coastlands Mall. We need volunteers to mind the exhibition and sell the books until Sunday 25th March (9am - 5.30pm, and until 7pm on Thurs). If you can contribute half a day, or a whole day, that would be fantastic! One person at a time is fine, but if you can do it in pairs that may be easier (based on our experience so far). There are busy patches and it is hard to monitor the books, protect the fragile models from curious children, and explain the value of the exhibition all at once. If you can help out, please email sam.kebbell@vuw.ac.nz with the times you are available and he will send you more information (FAQs and handover notes).
There is an online calendar for the volunteer schedule where you can see what slots are still required. Click on the link below:

If you can’t volunteer but can forward this request to people who might know somebody who can, or somebody that might know somebody etc, please do!

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?

26.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
