During the Covid-19 restrictions, business owners have shown initiative, hard work and resilience to keep afloat.
But many have been hit hard.
Lack of clarity about just how heavy the toll of the restrictions have been on individual businesses and their ability to quickly rebound adds to the uncertainty of the national economic recovery.
Therefore, Prosper is launching a survey targeted at finding out the scale of Covid-19's impact.
You can take that survey right now – it will only take a few minutes.

This means you could be eligible for 90% off the price of ceiling and underfloor insulation, as well as heat pump in your main living area.
For an average sized house it could cost you as little as $300 to insulate.
Cut down on those power bills today by making your home more energy efficient.

One that serves as a place to stash plant pots or tuck a hose out of sight too.

Pursuing a 0 per cent rates increase will have an "enormous impact" on the Christchurch community, city councillors warn.

A planned $34 million swimming pool and library development in Hornby could be delayed, the cost of a swim could go up and so could library charges, community grants could get the chop, and the New Brighton hot salt water pools could remain closed — everything is being considered to save money, but nothing is likely to be decided without another round of community consultation.
So what do you think? Would you want to pay more for services and public facilities, or would you prefer to have a higher rates bill? Or do you think there's any other way the council should save money? Read more here and tell us what you think in the comments below.

We've got a range of course options - from carpentry and electrical to plumbing and automotive. And with partial online learning available, COVID restrictions are no problem.

I am wondering what others think about these details and have you considered how you will vote?
Personally I believe they have made so many rules, regulations, and stipulations they will find difficult to police and in doing so it will be very costly.
Whereas the idea has theoretical changes I believe the reality will be totally different. There are just so many holes which can be taken advantage of and frankly I believe so many MPS involved are still wet behind their ears.

We ask that all clients entering our office maintain at least a 1m distance from our staff and each other, and that you sanitise your hands on arrival (hand sanitiser will be available at the front desk).
This means that we can now resume face-to-face consultations with clients in person, and we can therefore take appointments for meetings with our advisers as normal. However, for anyone who wishes to continue social distancing as much as possible, we are still offering online Skype and Zoom meetings in addition to physical meetings. This option will be given to all clients upon booking, so please just let us know which option you prefer and we will be happy to accommodate your preference.
Thank you all for your continued support and we hope to see some of you this Thursday.
