This month we’re celebrating the diverse array of people who call New Zealand home. Regardless of our different faiths, abilities, cultures, ages, orientations and genders - we want to make sure that our communities are safe and welcoming for all.

There are many ways to take part! From hosting a multicultural potluck or film screening to providing prevention information / resources in other languages, there are thousands of ways big and small to make our households, neighbourhoods, schools and businesses even more inclusive. It could even be as simple as learning from a neighbour how to say ‘hello’ in their first language or ensuring local footpaths are clear and accessible.

Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re creating inclusive communities this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

Neighbourly is changing!

Sandra from Timberlea

I am able to cope with change when I understand the reason for it.
Am unable to understand my recent concern because my query does not fit the available tick boxes!

Am unable to understand my recent concern because my query does not fit the available tick boxes!
Has anyone else noticed the increase in 'commercial' posts which are rarely (if ever) monitored and/or replied to?
Seems to self that the 'powers that be' have moved away from the community connectivity idea in favour of the commercial $.

"from smoke free home"

Sandra from Timberlea

OK .... I accept this may be an important factor to some.
However .... "smoke free" may not necessarily be the only concern buyers may have.
So ... why place that statement in an ad?

Our SPCA Pet of the Day is Opal, who is approximately ten months old.

"Hi there, my name is Opal and I am special girl looking a special home. If you are looking for a goofball dog then I'm the girl for you. I can be very silly, so if you are looking for a laugh then look no further. I am looking for a home with adults only and without small animals due to my quirks and behaviours shown previously. This kind of environment will help me to thrive in training and help me to settle into my new home. I always have a pep in my step and worm my way into peoples' hearts in very little time. I look forward to continuing training with my new owners and am sure to put a smile on your face at the end of a long day. I do come with a medical waiver that my new owners would need to be made aware of. If you think I am the gal for you, contact the canine team for more information."

The days are getting shorter and wetter. Winter is a few weeks away. To help get Winter ready keep your drainage flowing properly on your property. Take some time to make sure that drains and gutters are free from debris.

Maintaining your existing drainage solutions and freeing them from any build-up of natural debris (such as grass, weeds, summer growth, fallen leaves and silt) on your property is essential during this time of the year.

If you have any questions or need help with drainage solutions, give us a call. We're a local family business and here to help.
