We're keen on feedback on two projects in Porirua - the upgraded skatepark and the mural on the side of the building where the i-Site used to be. Artwork for the skatepark cost $17,000 and $28,000 for prep and maintenance. No figures yet on the mural. Happy with the end results? Are they … View moreWe're keen on feedback on two projects in Porirua - the upgraded skatepark and the mural on the side of the building where the i-Site used to be.

Hi, I am looking at upskilling from 'handsewing' to using a sewing machine and was hoping to find a second hand one. I have tried Trademe but nothing tickles my thumb. Thanks for the time.
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!
