The newly-launched Craftivist Companions are turning to needlework to find their political voice at Ponsonby's Unitarian Church in central Auckland.
Ten “introverted” activists are creating mini protest banners
– the square placards will form a temporary quilt that will be presented to Auckland Council on April 1 for the updated living wage announcement.
The banners will then be left as “respectful graffiti” on public spaces such as lamp posts.
Group founder and church member Kay Parish said the goal was to get people thinking from a different perspective.
A midwife driven by a strong dislike of injustice, she was inspired by a movement in England led by Sarah Corbett and the Craftivist Collective.
“Sarah talks about craftivism as being an ideal form of activism for introverts, people who don’t love getting out there shouting and challenging people in a confrontational way,” said Parish.
“Craftivism is a way of approaching people more gently and presenting a message in a more respectful and thoughtful way.”
Corbett’s group persuaded British retailer Marks & Spencer to pay its workers a living wage by giving every board member a personalised hand-embroidered handkerchief explaining why paying a living wage should fit with their values.
“The board members really took that message on board ...and it just shifted their perspective,” Parish said.
The Titirangi resident said paying people a fair wage helped them live their lives with dignity.

We have just dug out a huge clivia clump, and started re-potting some pieces. Orange flowers, 53 plants ranging from single plants to 3 plants per pot; $5, $10 or $15. Pick up is either old part of Grafton (with parking) or Mount Roskill. Call or text 0212218484, thanks
Hi all,
Does anyone know or hear anything about the government looking at removing the overhead powerlines that run through Mt Roskill? Or am I delusional as it will never happen?
Used only once as was the wrong size.
House moving and decluttering! Free to anyone in need.
Pick up in Remuera.
Multiple uses. Non-toxic. We bought it to use for gardening but it’s great also as a health supplement for pets and natural insecticide in the house eg flea and bed bug! Comes with a sprinkler for easier application.

Item pending pickup now.
Monstera plant still growing new leaves but existing leaves are a bit torn (thanks to a toddler) and needs some dusting.
Great indoor plant. Very hardy.

So we're encouraging Kiwis to consider climate-friendly modes of transport such as biking, scooting and walking when making trips under two kilometres.
That's why we've launched the ShopPack - a New Zealand-first backpack-style reusable shopping bag to let you keep your hands free on the move.
