North Shore and the Supercity

Caroline Williams Reporter from North Shore Times

Hi Neighbours. On November 1 it will be 10 years since the region's councils merged to become Auckland Council and I'm interested to hear your thoughts and reflections from the last decade.

Do you think the North Shore has benefited from the merge, or has it been left to fend for itself?

Has Auckland Council delivered projects to the area with the same enthusiasm as the North Shore City Council did?

Do you feel like you're a part of the Supercity?

Missing French teen Eloi Rolland: Parents plead for information as son turns 19

Caroline Williams Reporter from Auckland Stuff

The parents of missing French teenager Eloi Rolland are pleading for information on his whereabouts on what is his first birthday since his disappearance.

Rolland should have been celebrating his 19th birthday surrounded by friends and family in France on Thursday, but he has not been seen or heard from since CCTV spotted him in West Auckland on March 7.

Rolland’s parents Thierry and Catherine Rolland, who have been unable to travel to New Zealand due to the coronavirus pandemic, posted a renewed call for information on West Auckland’s community Facebook pages.

Written as if it were coming from their son, the post read: “Today, Thursday, [I turn] 19 years old. But I am a missing person. My parents are looking for me, their heart is with me and [they] hope to find me safe and sound.
I am appealing for witnesses, if since my disappearance I have been seen or spoken to by anyone, please inform my family or the NZ Police [sic]."

I'm so excited to finally be sharing a project our team has been working on for a while now: First Rung, our first podcast!
First Rung is packed with tips, advice and anecdotes from experts and home owners on every aspect of buying your first home - it also comes with a chance to win a $500 Resene prize pack.
Over six, bite sized episodes, we cover everything from saving that deposit, to sunset clauses, to how to get your newly purchased home ready to move into.
We'll also introduce you to ordinary Kiwis, just like you, who have navigated the choppy waters of home buying in NZ and made it onto that first rung - and pick their brains for how they did it.
We all know buying a home is one of the toughest, most daunting things we might ever do as adults, so it doesn't hurt to get some expert advice and support. That's what we wanted to give you with First Rung.
So give it a listen and let us know what you think - and be in to win that mint Resene prize pack. I can't enter and I'm well jealous!

Sharing a Testimonial:

"Having seen Manasi for only a month I had significant improvement in my comfort. I had been diagnosed with extreme inflammation that caused pain in one of my hip areas. Manasi treated me with ayurvedic and aromatherapy massage, reiki healing and a nutritional session complete with her gentleness & wisdom. End result having revisited my muscular skeletal specialist the inflammation had gone, my family noticed a difference in my walk too. Well I’m happy, still following Manasi’s advice and having regular massage, I am more relaxed and sleeping better too. Note – I do have a pretty intense managerial job so it is critical for me to manage that with good health care – prevention rather than repair."

Thank you
Namaste
