Help Youth Hub CHCH | Te Hurihanga ō Rangatahi

Ian from Richmond

Please read this article in The Press:
www.stuff.co.nz...

When 198 (Youth Health) was closed back in 2010 CDHB promised all sorts of one-stop things for youth that never eventuated - (another organisation that has no idea where adults come from!). Almost a decade has passed, kids are falling through the cracks - time to show them the respect and care all people are due in a connected and caring society.

Now is the time for Ruth Dyson (and Labour) who had supportive words for Dr Sue Bagshaw and Youth Health in general back in 2010* to step up and help fast-track this much needed facility - let's see some real leadership.
Write to your MP and local councillors.

Meanwhile we as citizens can attend this concert and/or make donations to this excellent cause - tell your friends and networks.
