Do we need better animal welfare rules in Aotearoa?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

CDANZ estimates that around 250,000 dogs are chained up for their entire lives in Aotearoa. Animal welfare inspectors from the SPCA can do little for them and only in the most extreme cases can dogs be seized, and owners prosecuted, due to the resources involved. Do we need to have better welfare … View moreCDANZ estimates that around 250,000 dogs are chained up for their entire lives in Aotearoa.

Large wooden cupboard wanted

Lesley from Mapua

I am looking for a large wooden (not MDF etc.) cupboard e.g. a large wardrobe or shed cupboard. Something about 1800 tall and 800 deep. It doesn't need to be 'pretty', just fairly robust and in reasonable condition.

Also, if you have extra anything, feel free to leave it there for others to enjoy. We would like this to be a community stall, so if other people use it too, it might make it happen :-)
