End of Winter Market 2021
Kia Ora! There’s officially less than a month to go until our End of Winter Market – September 25th will be a day to celebrate! We will run this event under alert level 1 or 2. Fingers crossed! Head along to the Northland Memorial Community Centre’s Main Hall to browse a variety of stalls showcasing Wellington’s talent. As you can see on our Facebook page, we’ve got stall-holders selling locally made goodies; from art and sustainable crafts to pottery, soap, candles, waffles, cacti and more! Plus, the DOPE food and drink trailer will be serving up delicious coffee and the perfect snacks. Yum! There’ll be face painting and more to keep the kids entertained, and performances from our regular users. With the winter chill easing off, it’s a great chance to get out in the community. Bring everyone along – family, friends, neighbours – and we’ll see you there!

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?
-
59.3% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
14.5% ... It is complicated
Addictive Eaters Anonymous
After ten years of depression, my life had hit rock bottom
I remember being ‘different’ around food for most of my life. This included things such as being the person who had two cream buns at morning tea when everyone else had one; eating icing sugar by the spoonful directly from the packet; and being the family member who went into the kitchen after dinner to eat the leftovers. There are numerous other examples – too many to list. I could overeat anything. If I couldn’t get my preferred favourites (e.g. chocolate), I’d be eating the vegetables.
