Fancy a walk?
The Kapi-Mana News team has signed up to Steptember - we've pledged to each walk 10,000 steps a day while we raise money for Cerebral Palsy.
I'm going to take a 30 minute walk every day during September and would love a Porirua local to join me each time.
If you have a story, an interesting tale or a project you want to tell us about, join me on a brisk walk and let's chat.
As long as you're fine with me writing about our conversation then I'd love to hear from you!
Message me here or email virginia.fallon@fairfaxmedia.co.nz and lets make a date.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
