Be part of a refugee background woman's journey...

Susan from Hataitai

Have you got the drive?

We’re looking for some remarkable women willing to volunteer their time to take a refugee-background woman for driving practice.

The learner drivers have had lessons with a driving school and need practice to prepare for their restricted or full licence test. The learner driver will provide the car for practice. Comprehensive training and ongoing support will be given to volunteers.

You’ll make a positive difference to her life and her family’s, receive training in new skills, increase your understanding of another culture and contribute to improving driver safety on the road.

Next training 21 May.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
