Helping others
I have made a new website designed to help people find what they need in relation to things in the community.
The site is only a week old but will list charities from all over NZ and as time allows I want to help promote small businesses.
Community Websites is the name. these things start small and will grow to be a big website with links to other sites providing help.
Currently, those needing help with ACC matters or those with disability young and old can find a huge amount of useful links.
Two children's charities are currently listed but plenty of room for more.
Accessible Whangarei is listed this site promotes small businesses in Whangarei.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
