Last 7 days of Kickstarter Campaign to open Chch's first Cat Cafe.

Bronwyn Reader from Cat Rescue Christchurch

Copied and pasted on behalf of Virginia from Spreydon (who is Nate's Mum).  Like she said if we all just pledged $5 dollars they would easily get to their goal and beable to start this venture.  How exciting for them and for Christchurch.


Can we do it as a community and help this get up and go young couple.!!! 


 YES WE CAN!!!!

Hi to all you wonderful Neighbourly folk

My son, Nate, and his wife, Alyssa, are working hard to raise $25000 to help start the first every cat cafe in South Island right here in Christchurch!

They only have 1 week to go to raise the last $8000 and so I'm spreading the word about their crowd-funding project where people can pledge from just $5.00. Every pledge has a corresponding reward. Pledges will only become donations when the $25000 goal is reached.
Every pledge will be greatly appreciated and help to make a wonderful new place for people to meet, have a cuppa and something delicious to eat and interact with Cat Rescue cats and kittens - you could also give a special, forever home to one of the cats or kittens that will be available for adoption.

Check out the Catnap Cafe crowdfunding project and facebook page in the links below. 

Many thanks
Victoria

Neighbourly Q&A: Consumer rights with CAB's Andrew Hubbard

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

What can you do if you buy something that breaks soon after you buy it? It's time for another helpful Q&A.

This week we have Andrew Hubbard from Citizens Advice Bureau New Zealand (CABNZ) who will be answering your questions about your consumer rights.

A little bit about Andrew:
Dr Andrew Hubbard is deputy chief executive of Citizens Advice Bureau New Zealand (CAB) and loves working for the CAB so much that he’s been there for more than fifteen years.

Andrew believes in the difference people can make working together in the community and loves being able to support the work of the more than 2000 CAB volunteers across the motu. Andrew’s background is in policy and he’s been actively involved in consumer issues for the fifteen years he’s been at the CAB.

Andrew and the CAB team are ready to answer your questions about your consumer rights. This might be questions about when you can get a refunds, your rights when buying via Facebook or overseas, product delivery issues and what to do if a retailer won't sort a problem out for you. Ask away!

Andrew will be here live on Wednesday at 9.30am, but go ahead, and add your question below now ⇩
