Lower Hutt Community Foodbank back at Dudley Street

Erin from Lower Hutt Foodbank

The Lower Hutt Foodbank has been back in its usual premises in Dudley Street for a month now. The lock-down forced many challenges to its operations but all is back to normal and the Foodbank continues to supply food parcels to Lower Hutt residents in need of emergency help. The photo shows food parcels in preparation.The Foodbank exists through the generosity of people, churches and businesses who provide food and donate money. Food donations can be left at the supermarket Foodbank bins or dropped off at Dudley Street during opening hours. Key food items always needed include snack food for school lunches, tinned vegetables and fruit, peanut butter and sugar. Many lovely people donate through the ‘Give a Little’ page at givealittle.co.nz... which enables the Foodbank to keep supplies topped up.
Opening hours are 9 – 11.30 am weekdays except closed on Thursdays. People needing help must bring ID such as a community services card or driver’s licence. Appointments are not required.

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
