Every day volunteers are cleaning our beautiful beaches of plastic waste.
We want to say thank you with a big smile. That is awesome. It will also be awesome if everybody takes the bottles back instead of littering the street, the ocean and the beach. It is time to install a cash for containers system now.
°
Bottle deposit schemes are getting real, tangible results around the world where they’re already been introduced - places like Germany, have tripled recycling rates since getting bottle deposits. This is an opportunity New Zealand can’t miss out on, especially if we want to get serious about tackling our waste crisis.

Please support the #cashfortrash, #cashforcontainers or the #KiwiBottleDrive campaign and sign the petition.

Doing this will make us all smile.

Will sensory-friendly Santa sessions brighten your family's Christmas?

Georgia Reporter from Stuff

Hi neighbours,

For some children with sensory issues, the bright lights, music and general festivities around a visit to Santa in the mall can be too much.

Auckland mum Tash Vruink can't remember the last time she took her 12-year-old son, Jaxon Woolley, to the supermarket or the mall.

Hi neighbours,

For some children with sensory issues, the bright lights, music and general festivities around a visit to Santa in the mall can be too much.

Auckland mum Tash Vruink can't remember the last time she took her 12-year-old son, Jaxon Woolley, to the supermarket or the mall.

But this Christmas, he'll have the option to enjoy a Santa snap with his two younger siblings thanks to sensory-friendly photo sessions.

In December, three of Auckland's Westfield Shopping Centres will open early with dimmed lights and soft music to cater to children with sensory disorders wanting to see the big man in red. To find out more about the sessions, click here.

What are your thoughts on these sensory-friendly Santa sessions? Do you know any children who would love to see Santa at a session like this? Let us know your thoughts with us in the replies below!
