Is lockdown level three conspiring against your connectedness?
As part of an investigation into how socially isolated New Zealanders are, the Sunday Star-Times and Neighbourly is keen on hearing how Aucklanders are feeling now we're back in level three. Were you just getting back into the swing of social life again before you had to retreat? Or perhaps things are feeling a bit harder this time around. Has the pandemic changed how you socially interact? If you're happy to talk to us about how you're facing level three head on (again), please email kelly.dennett@stuff.co.nz, send us a message here, or reply below.
Poll: Would you want an unconventional funeral?
Funerals can cost as much as $22,000 and the planning can be stressful especially at a time when loved ones are grieving. Some New Zealanders are re-imagining funerals by making their own coffin or having a relaxed ceremony at home. Would you want a less traditional funeral? Share your thoughts below.
