Porirua Mayor Anita Baker says she’s amazed by the resilience of our local business community – but they can’t do it on their own. “More than every we encourage you to love local, and when you’re planning a purchase to keep local businesses at the front of your mind. “It’s been an incredibly challenging couple of years for businesses, and these are uncertain times. If we all do a little bit, it can go a long way.”
Some ways to support local: Dine in or order takeaway The hospitality sector is feeling the pinch. Now is a great time to eat local first – try somewhere new, or support your favourite restaurant! If you can’t dine in, lots of places are doing takeaway orders.
Start Christmas shopping early It’s only three months until Christmas! Shop early and shop local. Shopping safely There are lots of ways to shop, even if you don’t feel comfortable going out right now. You can buy gift cards for your favourite local stores or restaurants now – over the phone or online – to use later. If you can’t visit a local business, you can still show them some love.
Take the kids out School holidays are coming up – check out some local ideas in the story below. Share the love You don’t have to spend money – it’s free to give a local business a shout-out on social media, give a great review, or share what you love about them through word-of-mouth.

"We were bought to SPCA because our family could no longer care for us. We are now looking for a home together. Eddie and Valerie are sweet guinea pigs who love their food.
We are very sweet to watch, and are getting better at being handled, but we really don't like it, like most guinea pigs. We will need a large grassy area with a weatherproof hutch for day time. At night, we will need to be inside with you as part of your family so will need an area inside your home. It will need to be large enough for us to fit comfortably for the night, or for days when the weather is just too awful to be outside in. If that sounds like your set-up, please get in touch with our Small Animal Team for an appointment."
