Mum, Cannabis, and Me - Screening and Panel Discussion

Kylie from Hutt City Libraries

We have a screening of the investigative documentary 'Mum, Cannabis, and Me' coming up next week, followed by a panel discussion.

This 30-minute documentary is the story of a medical student, challenging the establishment after witnessing doctors break the Patient Code of Rights because they were not having informed conversations with their patients about using cannabis as a medicine.

Our panel discussion includes:
Sue Grey (LLB) - the lawyer in the documentary
Tori Catherwood (MD) - medical student in the documentary whose mother began ingesting medicinal cannabis after she was diagnosed with terminal cancer
Veronica Stevenson (Director) – from Spindle Fibre Films
Ginny Andersen MP (Labour)

Screening and panel discussion are FREE and no booking is required. For more information about the documentary see library.huttcity.govt.nz....

Speed limits around NaeNae

Susan from Naenae

Hi Neighbors, Just a heads up, I have just received a $170 fine for driving at 50km on Rata Street Naenae on a SUNDAY Morning. I wrote to NZTA pointing out and sending in a photo of sign stating that it was 30km on school days between those hours, but they said that the whole of Rata Street and some surrounding streets are 30km 24/7 and have been for over a year. Did I miss this been advised by council? Always good to be informed. Merry Christmas to all
