Ruth from Orewa

Parenting teens can be thrilling, frightening, frustrating, and confusing (but certainly not boring!).
How do their brains work? 
What’s more important – connection, or boundaries?

What parenting strategies work better than others?

How do our teens learn to take responsibility for their choices?

What if things aren’t turning out the way I’d hoped they would?

How can I get the support I need as a parent?

Come along to listen, learn, and discuss….



This is a FREE talk (Koha donation) — you are warmly invited to come along and be encouraged, gain immense wisdom and have a consolatory cuppa tea!

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?
