Compostable Peanut Slab wrappers

Reporter Community News

Whittaker’s is trialing compostable Peanut Slab wrappers.
The wrappers will be composted at Porirua’s For the Better Good’s Edible Earth Urban Micro Farm during the eight-week trial, producing food for local charity WELLFed.
That compost will then be used to feed an organic garden at the old Porirua bowling club, providing fresh fruit and vegetables for use by Porirua charity WELLFed which, in turns, helps to feed the local community.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

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?
