Are you planning an event for Neighbour's Day this year?

Reporter Marlborough Express

Neighbours Day Aotearoa is a fun way to celebrate and connect with your neighbours, as knowing your neighbours helps combat loneliness and isolation in our communities.
This year, the organisers have created a theme - The Great Plant Swap - to offer neighbours a tangible symbol of togetherness and belonging, in a way that allows for either active or non-contact participation, whether Aotearoa is in Alert Level 1 or 4.
Neighbours Day Aotearoa runs from March 20-30, with almost 400 registered events already confirmed from Whangarei to Invercargill, and more being added every day.
