The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We’re thinking of our neighbours and small businesses affected by the flooding across Auckland. While it’s heartbreaking to see our communities struggle through another significant, disruptive event, we’re also seeing our members band together to support each other.

Here’s a few ways Neighbourly can help right now…

IF YOU'RE A SMALL BUSINESS:
- we're giving small businesses affected by the flooding a free 3-month Premium Business Listing. Simply follow this link and follow the steps to set up your profile.

IF YOU'RE NEEDING SUPPORT:
- share a few words on Neighbourly to let your neighbours know how they can help you or someone you know
- get in touch with the Neighbourly team if we can help spread the word about anything you're doing in the community - or if you're involved with a community group that's needing some support

IF YOU CAN HELP YOUR COMMUNITY:
- share a few words on Neighbourly to let your community know how you can support them. Remember no offer is too small - even just offering to be the friendly voice of support on the other end of the phone can help a neighbour feeling overwhelmed or isolated
- consider sharing resources or information you have found helpful at this time on Neighbourly
- check on your neighbours but do not put yourself in danger doing so. If you feel there is any risk consider sending them a message through your Neighbourly inbox

Amazing stories come out of the toughest times. There are hundreds of stories of good humans helping one another emerging after the severe weather and flooding recently battered the Northland, Auckland, Waitomo and the Coromandel recently.

So we’ve created Flooded with Love - a space to recognise our people: those who helped with the clean up, rescued a pet (or a neighbour), pushed cars out of water, directed traffic, loaned out equipment, shared shelter, or simply stopped for a supportive chat or a cup of tea.

Help us tell these stories and recognise the goodness that exists in our communities.

Looking for somewhere to live

Wendy from Remuera

A couple who have lost their home in Mt Eden area due to flooding are looking for a rental preferably in Mt Eden/Epsom area so their 8yr old daughter can still attend the same school. They also have a cat.
They are currently staying with very kind neighbours but of course this is only temporary.

A couple who have lost their home in Mt Eden area due to flooding are looking for a rental preferably in Mt Eden/Epsom area so their 8yr old daughter can still attend the same school. They also have a cat.
They are currently staying with very kind neighbours but of course this is only temporary.
It will take sometime for the insurance to be sorted and find another house to buy.
They realise there will be a number of people in the same situation however if you know of anyone who may have suitable accommodation who are happy to accept a pet can you please let me know.
Jenny & Chris would be very appreciative.
Perhaps now is the time for ghost house owners to put those houses into the rental market to help all the displaced Aucklanders ......
