Hello neighbours

The Coordinator from Taupo Neighbourhood Support

Are you a part of a Neighbourhood Support group in your street? Statistics show that less crime occurs in streets with active Neighbourhood Support groups and neighbours who know eachother fare better in emergencies.
Neighbourhood Support is different from Neighbourly in that we are a separate organisation - we're an affiliate of Neighbourhood Support New Zealand. We are a non-profit and membership is free (and always will be!)
We'll provide you with free advice, training and resources as well as crime reports; emergency preparedness and safety information so you can stay updated and informed.
If you'd like to start or join a group, please reach out to the coordinator at 073761601, email nstaupo@outlook.com or join us online: taupo.getsready.net...

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
