Letter from the Editor

Letter from the Editor

This month there are 15 letters to the editor covering issues which matter to locals – some cover the importance of the  Waitematā Local Board upcoming local elections.

Another one announces the opening of Blue, a new café/restaurant at the top of Franklin and Ponsonby Roads. With a new menu offering great food and a selection of delicious coffees, cocktails and wines.

While another deals with the loss of his dearly loved lavender plants which were hacked away without his permission.

Also in this issue, Kathryn Avenell reminisces about her childhood in Dryden Street, Grey Lynn. How times have changed – and not always for the better - p30.

Ten years on concrete and going strong for Lifewise, Sarah Trotman and other Aucklanders take to their sleeping bags on the streets of central Auckland for The Big Sleepout. Many New Zealanders still face homelessness, Lifewise helps them out of it. You too can make a difference.

LSKD, popular activewear brand, opens in Ponsonby Central 30 August. There are plans for future expansion. (Jay Platt & Martin Leach)
