Volunteer for Victim Support
Hi Neighbours,
Victim Support are currently recruiting new volunteers in the Manawatu Taranaki region, who can be there to help people coping with the impacts of crime and trauma.
If you’re a sensitive, resilient and good listener, with good written communication skills, computer literate and able to commit some time each week, we’d like to hear from you!
Volunteers receive comprehensive training and support from our professional team, and no qualifications or experience are required. Our next Initial Programme Training (ITP) in the Central region is planned for 4/5 and 18/19 April.
Contact us to find out more – call 0800 VOLUNTEER or go to our website.
We would love to hear from you!

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
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?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
25.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.3% ... It is complicated
A Neighbourly Riddle! Don’t Overthink It… Or Do?😜

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?
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?
-
9.7% For. Self-service is less frustrating and convenient.
-
43.2% I want to be able to choose.
-
47.1% Against. I want to deal with people.
