Would love to hear from you :)

Robert Steven Reporter from Taupō Times

Hi neighbours,

Taupō Times reporter Robert Steven here.

Every year we like to get in touch with Neighbourly members and invite them to let us know what matters in Taupō/Turangi/Mangakino and wider and what they think needs closer attention.

Is there something that you want to get off your chest and share with the wider community?

Here are a few things Neighbourly members have shared with us previously:
- A local crime and safety matter
- An unpopular council decision [or a popular one]
- Someone in the community doing something special
- A question about something going on in the community

If you have anything you think we should look into a little closer, then flick me a reply to this message.

We’ll need to assess each idea for its 'newsworthiness' so I apologise, in advance, if we don't go ahead with an article about the issue you raise. Feel free to call to buzz it by me if you want to check -- 027 204 2904.

Don’t forget that Neighbourly is a great place to get the conversation started and we do keep a close eye on the noticeboard.

Thanks!
Robert Steven, Journalist, Taupō Times
