More Kiwis eligible for insulation grants
If you have family who have been feeling cold in their home through winter, help may be at hand to make their home warm, dry, and healthy.
They might be eligible for Warmer Kiwi Homes, a government grant offering 80% - 90% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump.
In August, the eligibility criteria were extended so over 50,000 more homes are eligible for insulation grants. It gets better - there are lots of community organisations offering extra funding to reduce the cost further.
Go to our website to check their eligibility, today.
Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?
Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.
Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.
So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Low life
Hi Good Neighbours
Just moved into Pitt Ave just over a month ago, someone decided to visit my shed in the early hours of this morning and helped himself or herself to my weedeater, blower and my daughters bike that was a Christmas gift last year.
Whoever you are you will never be satisfy with your life, i hope one day you will go and find a job, instead of relying on other peoples sweat.
Hope also that what goes comes around and will bite you in your back side really bad.
Keep your homes safe good neighbours.
Have a pleasant weekend.
