Plus: Don't forget to join up to a Foot It Club at www.neighbourly.co.nz..., and go into the draw to WIN one of 50 Micro scooters.

We have to be out by 24th January. It could not have come at a worse time really.. anywhos, I am just putting the message out there to see if anyone can help us into a property by that date.
I am a fulltime Bachelor in Social Work student and part time worker. My partner is in the Demolition business. We have one medium sized well behaved furbaby (dog) who we have excellent references for, for this property, and the last one we were at with him.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thank you :)

a good friend of mine, Michelle Beri owns the Waiau Historic Hotel which has been red stickered from the damage the November 14th earthquake did. The money raised will go towards living expenses and to help her open another premises in the meantime until the hotel has been re-built.
Anything you can afford will be much appreciated.
If anyone has or knows someone who has a suitable caravan or old food type truck that they would be willing to donate or let her borrow in the meantime so she has some income, please message me and I will pass it onto her.
Fundraising on behalf of my friend Michelle and Lindsay to help raise funds to get the tavern back up and running and support them along the way.
The Waiau historic tavern was destroyed in the November 14th Earthquake. Michelle and co-owner Lindsay Collins purchased the tavern 18 months ago after moving there to start a fresh after the Christchurch earthquakes. They are facing hardship once again and without any income are uncertain about the future of the tavern. You can show your support by donating whatever you can to help them through these hard days ahead.
All funds go towards Michelle'e living expense and the rebuild of the pub.

We're backing schools to set up walking buses and other solutions, with parents and volunteers helping local kids get to class safely.
We wrote to the nation's mayors pleading with them to lower speed limits outside schools, and many have come back to us with expressions of support. We talked to well-known New Zealanders with school-aged kids, and they united behind the campaign.
You can get involved too. We know people are busy, so the Sunday Star-Times and Neighbourly are encouraging families to choose one day a week when they and their kids walk, scoot, cycle - even ride a horse if that's what works for you!
I've chosen Mondays as the days I'll cycle to school with my 6-year-old son. And Neighbourly has set up a special pledge page, where you can choose a day when you will try to Foot It with your kids, talk with others doing the same - and go into the draw to win one of 50 Micro scooters. www.neighbourly.co.nz...

Not only is there new carpet and laminate floors throughout, but the whole house has been freshly repainted, and the refitted bathroom has a new shower over the bath and stylish, contemporary fittings.
The kitchen is modern, with slimline dishwasher, generous pantry and a built in alcove for a sizeable side-by-side fridge/freezer.
Two generous double bedrooms both have built-in wardrobes and the third bedroom - a single - would also be perfect as a home office.
Cosiness is guaranteed with a heat pump, wall and ceiling insulation and damp-proofing under the floors. Outside, the house has been completely re-clad and painted. With its family-sized section, separate single garage and ample off-street parking, it's a perfect choice for first-home buyers or investors.
But, that's not all - this is a very convenient location near Eastgate Mall, within a 2 minute drive of Pak'n'Save Wainoni, across the road from local shops, a bar & cafe and a Mobil service station on the corner. Parents of school-aged children will appreciate a number of pre-schools within a short drive, as well as Aranui Primary, Chisnallwood Intermediate and Aranui High Schools all close-by.
