For the month of November, we want to raise awareness and work together to end all forms of violence including family harm, elder and child abuse, sexual assault, gang violence, and more. These victimisations affect us all and can have lasting effects that spill into our everyday lives including at work and school.
To do your part this month, perhaps consider supporting a women’s refuge or work with Police in your area to host an info night on how to identify elder or child abuse in your community. This month’s campaign also coincides with White Ribbon Day on 25 November which is an internationally celebrated day that aims to prevent violence towards women.
Let us know how you’re spreading the ‘It’s Not OK’ message in your home or in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

I know I keep re-posting this week after week but as christmas draws closer & closer I get more anxious & would really like spread some true christmas joy to a family in need.
I am new to this Give A Little thing, but needed to do something to help someone very close to me, out of her current predicament. I have set up a Give A Little page for a very dear friend of mine & her young kids who have become victims of a situation that has left them homeless & with no car. If you wish to ask any questions or know more information I will reply to any messages I receive.
Below is the link to my Give a Little page. If you wish to forward the link to anyone who might also be willing to donate, that would be very greatly appreciated. The faster I can hit my target, the sooner I can forward it onto her & her kids:

Thank you sincerely for taking the time to read my post & please, even if it's only to 1 or 2 people you know who might also be willing to donate, passing my post/link on will help me tremendously in my quest.
Sincerest Regards
Yvonne
Dogs lolling beneath cafe tables while their owners sip lattes or glasses of pinot would have been unthinkable 30 years ago.
Now it is just the way Kiwis roll, with a raft of dog-friendly dining options available throughout the country. What do you think? Should dogs be allowed in cafes?
We haven't used these and would love them to find a good home:
White, glass panelled TV/Entertainment/Storage cabinets (x 2) ($50 each or negotiable for both)
measurements in cm approx : (150 L x 44.5 W x 49.5 H)
Nice quality furnitures and fixtures with collectables for purchase.
1/2 price Children’s wear till 8th November.
Welcoming more good quality donations.
Thank you.

“It’s a great chance for us to say, ‘thank you’ to people for the support they are giving the project, and for us to show off some of the outstanding engineering behind a project that will re-shape the way Aucklanders travel.” Space in the tunnels is confined, as such there will be no access for bikes, prams, pushchairs, scooters and skateboards.
Fact file:
=======
**Numbers will be restricted to 10,000
**There will be 10 entry sessions during the day. To keep people safe underground, each session will be restricted to 1000 people
**Tickets will be free and restricted to six per person
**Walking the tunnels will run from 8am until the last entry at 5pm
**When tickets become available, people will need to nominate the time of their visit
**The tunnels are not suitable for people who have a fear of being in a confined space, and there are low levels of lighting underground
**People are encouraged to wear sensible, flat shoes
**Entry and exit from the tunnels will be through the Britomart station
===================================
Tickets will be available through iTicket from Wednesday, 6 November
====================================
Remember this is a sneak peek into a live construction environment and the tunnels are still being built - as such, people should be prepared for dust, loud noises and uneven surfaces. Asthmatics should bring inhalers.
