To create safer, more caring communities we need to not only look after ourselves but those around us as well.
For the month of September, we want to come together to share ways to boost mental health and well-being. For example, you could host an online catch up or quiz, call a neighbour who lives alone, challenge your family and friends to try a new hobby or move your body more to improve your own well-being. If you or someone you know is going through a rough patch, don’t forget you can call or text 1737 anytime for free support from a trained counsellor.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re looking out for your well-being and helping others with theirs this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz

Ho is your pet coping in lockdown and feel free to post a picture.
“I wanted to give an update on how “Clarence”—now named Moose— is settling in. He’s such a relaxed cat! He’s become very attached to our 14m old lab/collie mix and they play together really well! We had hoped they would get along, as he had been fostered with a dog, but it’s been great to see them bond so quickly. Moose has also bonded strongly with my partner and I, falling asleep on us while we work and my partner even moves his little bed onto his desk while he’s in meetings working from home. Hope you guys enjoy some photos.”

Supermarkets in NZ have never had it so good. They are certainly raking in the money during Level 3 and 4 as people are forced into cooking meals.

I live where four supermarkets are within a somewhat fit person's walking distance.
Never have I seen such an overall raked-up price hike on vegetables, fruit and meat as in the last several days. It is like pre-Christmas Day times, only worse.
It is as if Covid 19 is also killing and strangulating the agricultural and horticultural sectors.

Kent, who lived all his life in Upper Hutt, was a pioneering cyclist who was crowned New Zealand Sportsman of the Year in 1970.
Sports historian Ron Palenski remembers Kent as a sporting great who deserved to be much more widely recognised, saying the impact Kent’s success had on cycling cannot overstated.
“New Zealand cycling has been forever in Kent’s debt,” Palenski said.
Do you have any memories of Kent?

We're looking for lockdown gardening ideas! With New Zealanders stuck at home everyone is keen to get into their gardens, but they can't get to the shops to buy plants and seeds. So we want to hear from you some suggestions for crops you can start or sow from what you have on hand or useful gardening hacks using just what you have at home already without going to the shops.
It doesn't have to be a big idea - just something like growing spring onions from the base or sprouting avocado seeds to make a houseplant. Send your tips and ideas to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz and we'll publish the best ideas in NZ Gardener.
Make sure you include your full name and address - only your name and the region you live in will be published but if we use your tip we will send you a free copy of the magazine.

Upper Hutt is now the most expensive place in the Wellington region to rent a house, surpassing the capital city and even the median rent across Auckland.
Can people still afford to rent in Upper Hutt?

"Bush robins/toutouwai (Petroica longipes) have an open heart, they roam tramping tracks without fear because it doesn’t occur to them to be afraid. They have no armour on their personalities. If they were humans they would help you change your tyre and laugh about the experience.
They will stand on your shoes if you sit too long. And rummage inquiringly while you unpack your pack. I read once that the open-hearted will inherit the Earth. I hope it’s true – that it is better to be possibly hurt than hardened. But the open-hearted are often preyed upon by the ambitious. It might be why the robin is at risk and declining – he’s just a little too trusting of those that would eat him. Bushy Park, July 2021."
