Yesterday I launched the Housing First initiative with Minister Amy Adams. It's a proven model to end chronic homelessness and has worked both overseas and in New Zealand.

Tackling homelessness was an important campaign platform for me and I'm pleased we're working with five great providers to end chronic homelessness in our city.

Find a new home for your unwanted items!

Communications Team from Auckland Council

Rather than store items for the annual inorganic collection, we’d love you to think about selling or donating your unwanted reusable items any time of the year. So we worked with Neighbourly to create a dedicated space for you to offer your unwanted items to others in your neighbourhood

Under the Stars - Homeless in Tauranga
We are a Charitable Trust feeding the homeless and needy. We supply hygiene necessities, blankets, and clothing for those in need. We are also fortunate to have a hairdresser occasionally on site who gives her services for free. Recently we have begun to hold a drop in afternoon every second Thursday, giving people the opportunity to have a light lunch and a chance to chat. We are hoping to develop this afternoon more by offering a variety of creative arts. The volunteers that commit time and energy towards our meals do so mostly out of their own funds.

Proposed youth centre for Keith Street Wanganui central district
I propose the opening and running of a youth centre based in Keith street or Wanganui cbd. The benefits of having a youth centre in the community will bring together the younger and older generations, so we can learn from each others mistakes and experiences to enhance each other’s lives. We have a mixture of people from different cultures in our society in such a small radius that sometimes we forget about those who really are struggling with life, and they are the most vulnerable people in our society. I want to change that for the better, and help those people that are struggling to survive on the basic benefit or wages. VOTE NOW!
