We're bringing our Curtain Bank service to Upper Hutt from September 17-28 – between 12-2pm!! We make it easier for some communities to access our service by coming to them.

Anyone with a Community Services Card or Super Gold Combo Card can go to the Rimutaka Baptist Church (2 Akatarawa Rd, Upper Hutt) to pick up a window measurement form, take it home to fill out the details, then bring it back to complete the order.

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.

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)
.
