Does anyone have any furniture for a worthy family.....
Hello fellow group members. I've recently met a young family in Glendowie. Early 20's with a lovely little 4 year old boy. Their rent is very expensive but have moved here to get their son into a good school.
I will buy them some sofa's, bed's anything really. They have a nice place but are literally all sleeping on the floor. I'll give it a week or so to see of anyone in our community can help for free!!! If not let me know what you have and I'll pay for it and collect.
We are all very priviledged, let's not forget to put a bit back!

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
