Fundraising Auction
Age Concern Marlborough have been donated 2 lovely original paintings to auction for funds for our Friendship Group. This group runs once a month and includes morning tea, a chance to chat, and often a guest speaker or activities on a theme. We try to have an outing at least once a year. These meetings are the highlight of the month for some of our members and are an important tool in our quest to end social isolation.
You can check out the Trade Me auctions below.

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:

25.4% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.5% ... It is complicated
