Come along to our community meeting
Hi Neighbours,
As your local MP, I hold regular community meetings with informative speakers on a range of timely topics. We have hosted ambassadors, the Mayor, Reserve Bank Governors, animal welfare advocates and IRD tax experts.
Each year, I invite councillors serving the Epsom electorate to give a report on council activities. The decisions of the Council are often felt more acutely than those of central government, so it is important to hear from those making those decisions on our behalf.
On 24 July, I will be hosting Desley Simpson, the Auckland Councillor for the Orakei Ward at the Somervell Presbyterian Church 497 Remuera Road. The meeting will begin at 2:00pm, with light refreshments available from 1:30pm.
I do hope that you will be able to join me at what promises to be a most interesting presentation.
I am accepting pre-submitted questions so we can maximise the time available. Please email your questions to mpepsom@parliament.govt.nz.
Please register quickly to secure your place. You can register by calling 09 522 7464 or emailing mpepsom@parliament.govt.nz. Please note there is very limited parking available at the venue.
I do hope you will be able to join.
Authorised by David Seymour, Parliament Buildings, Wellington.

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
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.
