It’s in the Bag - Charity Drive
There is a new charity called ‘It’s in the Bag’. It began down south last year, and due to great success, they have spread around the country. It’s about providing some needs and some wants to women in local refuges. I am one of the volunteers for Tauranga.
Donations of handbags and necessities (sanitary supplies, toothbrushes and toothpaste, combs and brushes, shampoo and conditioner, soaps and lotions ...) and extras (nail polish, lipstick, perfume ...) can be dropped of to me - or, if possible, I can come to you.
All donations will be distributed the week of December 3rd, so please drop off by December 2nd.
Please see the attached flyer for more information.
Contact me on 0275552872 for drop off/pick up details. Cheers

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)
.
