Everyone deserves a warm, dry, healthy home – see if you’re eligible for financial support to insulate and heat yours.

Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% - 90% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump. In August, the eligibility criteria were extended so over 50,000 more households are eligible for insulation grants.

And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

Check your eligibility, or check for your whānau.

Voting Dilema

Gordon from Halswell

What worries me, is: The media, which is lying to us about politicians, that are lying to us, we do not believe either of them. So we, the voting public are allowed to vote on the topics and policies that we, the media, and the politicians know are not true, or if some are true, we do not know … View moreWhat worries me, is: The media, which is lying to us about politicians, that are lying to us, we do not believe either of them. So we, the voting public are allowed to vote on the topics and policies that we, the media, and the politicians know are not true, or if some are true, we do not know which ones they are.
That is democracy for you, we get to vote and it comes down to GUT FEELING
