Warm celebrations for the dreamer who helped build a house in 3 Hours, 44 Minutes & 59 Seconds!

Fiona Gallacher from

This week we celebrate one of our greatest treasures at Habitat Auckland, Warren Jack! πŸ˜‡

Warren has been involved with Habitat since its early days in New Zealand (commencing in 1995). Starting as a volunteer, he then led our team as Executive director of Habitat Auckland for many years and currently ensures
all our health and safety requirements are A1 standard. πŸ§πŸ‘

Warren Jack was the man behind the dream to break Habitat for Humanity's World Speed Record building a 4 Bedroom House in 3 Hours, 44 Minutes & 59 Seconds..... what an amazing event that was! πŸŽ‰

This vintage caravan drawing was supposed to be a gift for Warren's retirement...but lucky for us this isn't happening any time soon so we decided to present it to him in celebration of his 70th birthday! πŸŽ‚

Wishing you a very happy birthday week Warren!
May you have many happy caravan adventures when we allow you a few days off....🀩 🚐

How can we begin to thank you for all you have done through the years for so many...changing lives, tirelessly working toward Habitat's mission that everyone deserves a decent place to live!
A humble, heartfelt Thank you from all of us xπŸ™πŸ€

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱

I can’t work out why the parking malls have free parking while at the hospitals you have to pay for parking yet those parking people make HUGE PROFITS so WHY don’t in this cost of living crisis DONT they help NZ people with either a freeze on parking cots or lower their parking fees
