Whether it's someone who has been there in a time of need, has helped your family, or who regularly volunteers their time in their community - we'd love to hear about them.
If your neighbour is picked as this week's Nice Neighbour, you’ll both receive a $25 Prezzy® card plus your special neighbour will feature in community newspapers around New Zealand as an inspiration to us all.
Let us know who should be recognised for their good deeds by nominating now.

There’s an impressive range of stallholders both inside and outside with a range of arts and crafts (Baby and Toddler Ware including fairy/princess outfits, Merino Goodies and quilts) natural skincare, produce (Olive Oil, Honey, Preserves, baking etc), Junk For Joy - upcycled and repurposed furniture and homewares, Natural Health Supplements, Bric-a-Brac, books, plants, children's clothing, toys, Jigsaw puzzles and lots lots more. The ingenious Bernie’s Barrows display is back so don't miss it!!
And of course, there is our Seasonal Surplus stall where you can drop off surplus fruit and veges from your garden for sale - we sell it on your behalf and donate our percentage to local causes. Everyone wins and nothing gets wasted!
A great country market where you will find cheerful smiles and a lovely bunch of really friendly and hugely talented stallholders.
All are very very welcome at the "Best little Market in Kapiti".

Another Guy Fawkes rolls around and once again i am dreading it. Every year thousands of animals are injured after being panicked by fireworks. Thousands more are not physically harmed but left traumatized by the noise. Many react as if they are about to be shot. They are terrified.

Please do not let fireworks off in open spaces where horses, sheep or other animals are grazing. Spare a thought also for your neighbours who may have a horse grazing next door, or back yard chickens who are equally terrified of fireworks. Make sure your cats and dogs are safely inside, and if you can, let your neighbours know when you are setting off fireworks so they can put their pets inside too.
