Poll: Do you ever tune in to livestreamed council meetings?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The number of people beaming in to watch their councils online has either stayed consistent or dropped slightly, but councils say the benefits still outweigh the costs.

Most councils in the Waikato report double digit viewer numbers, and one says it still hasn’t caught up with its colleagues and only broadcasts meetings if necessary.

Poll: Are you a confident swimmer?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

Hamilton’s Dianne June always regretted not learning how to swim and she doesn’t want others missing out on the important life skill so she’s making a substantial donation to Stuff’s safe swimming campaign.

Stuff, supported by the Waikato Times, with backing from Water Safety New Zealand, launched its safe swimming campaign in October.
