Wool for Baby Knitting

Marianne from Rangiora

The wool company Skeinz is helping the flood victims in the North Island and understandably cannot help everyone, and have turned our request for patronage down. I am asking for help for the a few of the millions of people displaced by the bombing in Ukraine. We have used up my large stash of balls of pure wool and our Lions club and also our Ryman's knitters are crying out for more. These finished garments are really cute. If you have two or three balls of the same colour of pure wool we would appreciate your donations. Maybe we can mix ' match the colours. A ball band is necesary for translation into Ukrainian. Please we need help.

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Poll: Would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? 🌿🐦

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Canterbury, you have a hidden treasure right on your doorstep ... though it does come with a 1.5-hour walk up the stunning Rakaia Gorge Walkway.

Along the trail you’ll find The Fantail Shop showcasing small artworks by local artisans. Even better, every purchase supports the Fantail Trust, helping protect and restore biodiversity on the north bank of the gorge.

So we’re curious: would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? (And for local biodiversity, of course 🌿)
