Friends of Kaitawa Reserve

Mike from Paraparaumu

The Friends of Kaitawa Reserve
Invite you to join us for Morning Tea at Kaitawa Reserve on February 12th, 10-11am
(or if wet, on Feb 26th 10-11am)


Do you enjoy being out in the bush and hearing the native birds singing?

Do you have an interest in ecology/ conservation?

Do you have time on a Thursday morning, weather permitting, to help look after the native bush at the Reserve, including clearing invasive weeds and planting eco-sourced plants?

If so, join us for morning tea: 10 to 11am, Feb 12 at the Reserve (or Feb 26 if wet). Meet the volunteer team and hear how you can help care for the Reserve (morning tea provided).
Directions: head over the railway line at the traffic lights on the intersection of old State Highway 1 and Kapiti Road, and follow the road towards Ruapehu St, then turn into Kaitawa Cres. The entry to Kaitawa Reserve is at the curve of the Crescent. Please park on the street.

Cheers
Mike

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?
