Friends of Karori Cemetery: Plants for the Historic Core

Julia Kennedy from Friends of Karori Cemetery

With summer now in full swing, we've paused planting in the historic core area until we're back in the cooler weather of autumn. Still lots to keep us busy in preparation!
In the meantime, if you have some space in the corner of your garden or greenhouse to propagate some plants, or sow some perennial seeds, we would be most grateful to receive these from next March onwards and throughout the autumn.
If you have any questions about what plants to grow, please feel free to email us at:

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?
