Further to my previous post on being Homeless in Kapiti
Further to my previous posts on being Homeless in Kapiti a core group has been set up to discuss and work with what and how we can achieve this dilemma and having its voice heard. I had asked that others share their stories and experiences so a Facebook group has been started for these to be shared on. First you will need to request to join the group and answer three questions before admin will accept you in. This is done to keep the members safe and have their privacy kept. Once in the group it is asked that you read the Mission Statement, Privacy and Guidelines before any posts are made. There is the option of making an anonymous post to share your story or to post and admin will review it before accepting it. That is to keep out any abusive, nasty, bullying posts and comments. Members and posts cannot be seen by non-members to protect your privacy. If you are interested in pulling together with other interested Kapiti people to house and reduce the homeless numbers please feel free to join at the following link. If you have any questions before committing to joining please feel free to ask in the comments

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
