Disabled Parking Fraser Cove

Elly from Welcome Bay

Hi Everyone, there are now three brand new disabled car parks on the side of Countdown right next to the trolley bay. A few weeks ago Mike nearly fell trying to get down the slope to the present disabled car park next to the zebra crossing. Thanks to two lovely ladies who came to our assistance a terrible situation was averted. I spoke with the Fraser Cove Center Manager and after lengthy discussion, she agreed the present situation with the bad slope on the path leading from the front entrance to Countdown was not acceptable, she has now put the new disabled car parks on the flat area. These are for people using aids ie walkers, sticks and wheel chairs. Am thrilled this has been done and look forward to a pleasant outing with Mike now. People are sometimes listened to!

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?
