Masks signed by Jacinda Ardern and Ashley Bloomfield to be auctioned for charity

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from Northern Outlook

Here's a chance to own a unique piece of New Zealand history, commemorate 2020 and support charity all in one.

The Rangiora Lions Club, in North Canterbury, is auctioning two framed face masks signed by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and director-general of health Dr Ashley Bloomfield.

The masks feature phrases commonly uttered at the daily 1pm Covid-19 briefings: “Be kind” and “Kia ora koutou katoa.”

All proceeds will go to Blind Low Vision NZ​, formerly known as the Blind Foundation. The masks are being auctioned on Trade Me.

Chickenwire needed

Richard from Rangiora

Hi. I need about 8 sq metres of chicken wire. If you have some lying around that you don't need, I'm happy to take it off your hands, deliver a boot full of recyclables to the tip or pay a bit for it. Please let me know. Thanks.
