That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.
HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop, the viruses are mostly transmitted by teenagers and young adults but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they are young. Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV at some point in their life. Protecting children before they are exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.
For more information about HPV immunisation, see www.health.govt.nz/hpv

How do we get people to recognise what they need to do to keep safe while fishing and swimming? In spite of all the education programmes it doesn't seem to be working. Should it be compulsory to wear a life jacket while participating in these recreational activities?

A petition seeking law reform on foreign drivers on New Zealand roads is to be presented to parliament on February 14.
In 2016, 25 people died in NZ in a vehicle accident which involved overseas drivers.
Should Foreign drivers sit some kind of driving test before being allowed to drive in NZ?

This one is pretty simple. You're a Neighbourly member so connecting with your community is obviously pretty important to you. So this tip is more of a challenge; this year (or this weekend!) make it your mission to meet someone new living near you.

Here's a few things you can do to get you started:
- use the Neighbours Directory to find neighbours on your street.
- introduce yourself on Neighbourly to those living in your neighbourhood. Just a few words about yourself and what brought you here.
- Give something away or sell something! A Neighbourly exchange gives you a chance to meet someone new.
- just head out the door and knock on someone else's!
