Heatstroke

Lynda from Army Bay

Merry Xmas everyone, cases of dogs, especially dogs,and cats suffering heatstroke already. They only have their paw pads to sweat thru, so any extra panting, drooling, Signs of stress or weakness, they need to to be cooled down. It’s dangerous,. Don’t walk in the heat, or leave in the car, . Soak them with cool water, cool towels, let them drink. and if no better, vet should be visited. They are relying on us, and a gift that we need to love and appreciate. Obviously shade is best, don’t leave them tied up or outside on hot decks, or even in houses that are shut up. Leave air con and fans on, open windows and doors open a bit if you can. Look after your fur babies everyone.

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?
