Rural Kiwis send support for Aucklanders trapped in lockdown

Ripu Bhatia Reporter from Community News

Hi neighbours!

New Zealanders from farms, factories and schools around the country are showcasing messages of support for Aucklanders trapped in lockdown.

The initiative is being driven by Kia Kaha Auckland, a group aiming to support communities and regions who continue to be disadvantaged by the impacts of Covid-19.

Group spokesperson Lee Astridge said it was a way to show Auckland the rest of the country was thinking of them and wishing them strength in adversity.

“We’re a bunch of rural people who believe that stepping up and showing we care for everyone in New Zealand ultimately gives the country the best chance to thrive,” he said.

Here’s a clip of some of the messages, let us know what you think in the comments!

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?
