Random Acts of Kindness – August 1st to 31st 💖

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From paying it forward in line at a cafe to giving flowers to a friend ‘just because’ - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

All it takes is a kind gesture to change someone’s day. From paying it forward in line at a cafe to giving flowers to a friend ‘just because’ - this month we’re encouraging our members and supporters to make New Zealand a better place one random act of kindness at a time.

The options for doing so are endless! Being kind doesn’t have to cost a thing, after all a smile is free. For those who want to go the extra mile, here’s some other ideas: Buy extra kai at the grocery store to donate to a food pantry, help someone with a broken down car or flat tire, bring treats into work for colleagues, send an encouraging text to someone who needs it, let a car into the traffic ahead of you, take a gift over to new neighbours and introduce yourself, write positive messages in chalk on sidewalks around your neighbourhood, or surprise loved ones with a visit.

This month also coincides with World Humanitarian Day on August 19th and Random Acts of Kindness Day (New Zealand) which is on September 1st.

Let us know how you’re spreading kindness in your community by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

The Chairman’s Report for the Finance Committee foe 1st Aug 19 was refused by the Chief Executive i.e. not to be included in the meeting.
The report is recommends that Staff undertake a Cost Benefit Analysis on all recommendations (reports) to Council, something not conducted at present.
One would have thought that a Cost Benefit Analysis was sound financial practice, transparent to residents and ratepayers and a requirement when spending their money.
The Chief Executive is an employee of the Council (Elected Members)
It begs the question:
What authority does the Chief Executive have to disallow a Chairman's Report?
Since when does an employee dictate to the boss?
