Storm cleanup
Hope everyone’s doing okay after the storm.
I’ve got some availability next week if anyone needs help with priority cleanup. I’ve got a pole pruner and chainsaw. Just noting I’m not an arborist.
Call 021308938 or message me.
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 🪙💰🪙

-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.1% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.4% ... It is complicated
