Plan your journey to the AKL Lantern Festival this weekend

If you're coming to #lanternakl, consider cycling, walking or public transport - parking restrictions are in place and parking is in very high demand. Plus AKL City & Starship Hospitals are both open and operating as normal during the festival, including their busy emergency departments. If you're heading to the festival, please look out for ambulances and give them right of way; help keep the entrances to the hospitals clear for patients, whānau, visitors and staff; and stay out of the hospital grounds and carparks unless you are visiting the hospitals.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
