The Wednesday Challenge is launching in Tauranga!

Tina from Welcome Bay

Hi Neighbours,

Are you sick of sitting in traffic?

An exciting community initiative is launching in your neighbourhood next week, March 2nd! THE WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE invites you to travel differently on a Wednesday, wherever you are going. Maybe you have errands to run, need to go shopping, visit friends or attend a social event. Can you take someone with you or consider ride sharing with someone else, take the bus, lime scooter, walk or bike instead of sitting in traffic by yourself. There’s rewards and prizes up for grabs for the neighbourhoods, businesses and schools who generate the biggest shift in the way they travel. Every ride counts.

The Wednesday Challenge is a great way to build stronger community connections, reduce road congestion, improve your health and wellbeing and have some fun. It’s also a great chance for each one of us to make a small change to make a big difference collectively.

Are you up for the challenge? Change the way we travel…. for good. Jump online to find out more and join the Challenge at: www.wednesdaychallenge.co.nz...

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
