Kerikeri Mens' Club

Stuart from Kerikeri District

Are you a retired or semi-retired gentleman? Do you want to get together with like-minded people? Then maybe the Kerikeri Mens' Club is for you.
We were previously the Kerikeri Mens' Probus established 1986, but have this year become an Incorporated Society and are now an independent club.
We meet on the 1st Tuesday of each month (January excluded) at 10am, and start with tea/coffee and a chat - an opportunity to catch up with old friends and make new ones.
The meeting proper starts at 10.30am with a couple of more formal activities, including a raffle and lollies for the birthdays of that month (January birthdays get theirs in February).
Then there's a few random ingredients at the discretion of the President, and we conclude with a 40 minute speaker from a range of topics, with a chance for questions at the end.
Other activities are an event on the 3rd Thursday of the month, such as a Car Quest (a fun-filled rally-type event); a putting competition; cinema café lunch & movie; Ngawha Corrections Facility visit; Winter Solstice lunch - we're open to more suggestions!
Our meetings are not restricted to men only - wives, partners, and other female friends are welcome.
If you are interested, ring Stuart 09-407-3458. You may wish to try us before committing. We look forward to hearing from you.

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?

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?
