Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.

John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!

As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!

John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.

CAREGIVER SUPPORT HELP NEEDED😄

Helen from Totara Vale

For my lovely 🍓 89yo mum. Ideally 1 - 2 days pw. I'm looking at 8am - 2pm. Making her breakfast (weetbix, eggs, toast), mid morning porridge & lunch. Basic cooking skills & light cleaning duties (cleaning bathroom, keeping lounge tidy)😄 & keeping her company when im out food shopping/attending appointments. No showering as we have a carer doing that. She loves company & her Chinese TV. Mum is a softly spoken person with good SOH. Suited to someone similar like her & reliable. I'm there in the mornings & can give you guidance & support. An awesome opportunity for someone who loves working with the elderly. If you know of anyone or perhaps yourself you'd love to help me, it would be greatly appreciated. Call/text me 027 3862680. Cheers Helen😄

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
