We’re adjusting our electorate boundaries for the next two general elections.

By making sure each electorate has about the same number of people, we can give all New Zealanders equal representation in Parliament. It’s all balance.
If we move one of your electorate boundaries, you could end up in a different electorate to the one you’re in now – so we show you what we’re proposing before we make any changes and give you the opportunity to share your thoughts.

Hi, I'm on the hunt for any unwanted bikes that might be taking up space behind or in the garage, any size, shape, condition.

Wanting to try a little up cycling project with them, once finished I intend to drop down to EcoStore so that might have another life for someone else.

Size/ rust/ working or not all not important. At very least it may save you a trip to the EcoDrop.

Will collect.
Thanks in advance
