Healthy New Year 🙌
The start of the New Year has always been a popular time to reassess where we’re at with our health.
We'd love to hear what you do within your local community to stay fit & healthy!!
Whether your goal is to increase your fitness, reduce your stress levels, eat healthier, or simply be more mindful, there’s no better time than now to take steps to improve your well-being.
The best way of course to stay on track is to get others involved!
From starting a walking group with neighbours to trying out new recipes with whānau or friends – it’s always more fun to do things together.
Share your tips, recipes, photos and experiences with us using the following hashtag: #NSNZhealthynewyear
Each month Neighbourhood Support New Zealand launches a national campaign where we focus on a theme or topic relevant to the time of year.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?

Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we are having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
