Free help for flood-affected businesses and neighbours...
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

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're 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.
