OUR LAST MONTHLY FUNDRAISER CAFE FOR THE YEAR!

Kate from Trentham

This HAS to be the cheapest cuppa in Upper Hutt - maybe Aotearoa/New Zealand? Where else can you get a percolated coffee or pot of tea with a slice of home baked cake or cheese and relish toastie for ONLY FOUR DOLLARS!! YES, only $4 and served with a smile! WHERE? UHBC's Community Centre, corner Fergusson Drive and Milton Street, Trentham on SATURDAY 5 DECEMBER between 10am and 12 noon. From 11am there'll be live music with Christmas carols - you can sing along if you like! We'll also have a Home Baking Table with items for sale. All our proceeds go to support the very worthwhile work of Circuit International, helping the poor and disadvantaged in Myanmar with some great projects. Check their website to see some of them.

There'll be a CAR BOOT SALE outside in the car park - only $15 and those proceeds also go to Circuit International. Phone 528-3454 to book a site.

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?
