It's important
'It is important to Vote'.
I say this because when you do, you are invested in the people you want to represent you.
I am standing for the Whangarei Urban vacancy for the Northland Regional Council (NRC) I have been asked often " What precisely does the NRC do?" and "What will you do make a difference?"
I can answer this. www.youtube.com... is the video I was shown at our Candidate information session and makes it clearer what you will be voting for in this coming by-election - someone who will represent you and who can be trusted to make decisions for the best possible outcomes for Northland.
BE HEARD, BE SAFE, THRIVE
I am invested in our community. I live in our community and I have brought up my children in this community. We survive and thrive through our environment, and I want us all to be well and loving our lives.

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!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.3% ... It is complicated
