Poll: Should Nelson City Council help save Natureland?

Skara Bohny Reporter from The Nelson Mail

Should the council put up the funds, or not? Do you have any other ideas for how to save the zoo, or has it's time come? Let us know in the poll or comments below.
Natureland is in trouble, after receiving less council funding than they requested last year.
Possibly the only way to save the business, according to a letter sent to the council by the Natureland Wildlife Trust board chair, is to receive the remaining funding they initially requested, otherwise the zoo will close and the animals will go, either to other zoos or, worst case scenario, by being euthanised.
What do you think should be done?

Calling all those in Wheelchairs

Simon from Stoke

Hi, I'm Simon .... a 44 yr old wheelchair user who wants to meet others in a similar position as myself (particularly a woman). I've been a sole parent now for almost 18 years and my son has just left the nest, so I thought it was time to start on the next stage of my life. I have cerebral palsy that effects just my legs (kinda the reason I can't walk) sooooooo if any of you are interested in getting to know me, flick me a message. I enjoy spending time with my son when he comes to visit and my pets (1 cat and 2 birds), I also enjoy building computers as well as a bit of gaming/watching TV too. So if this sounds like something you'd be interested in, shoot me a message.
