Porirua Book Club
Yes, back for the second time after lockdown, this evening at 7pm! We read a book, have a brief discussion about it, and then get down to general nattering! We're a very small group currently, but are happy to have more members. A different member each month chooses a book from the Porirua library, we read it over the month. Most of the books that we read are novels - in fact, so far, all of them have been. If you would like to attend tonight, please contact me on fejoac@gmail.com and I will give you the details.

So we want to hear what you think:

59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.5% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.2% ... It is complicated
