We need your help - take part in our 10 min survey!

Dr Trevor Bradley from Institute of Criminology (Victoria University) Research Project

Hi neighbours, can you help us better understand your community's concerns about crime and community safety? If you are interested, please take part in our ten minute survey here.

We’re from the Institute of Criminology, Victoria University of Wellington. This research aims to understand our growing reliance on private security for protection against burglary and other crime and what this can tell us about perceptions of crime and policing and the changing ways we manage the risks of crime.

Neighbourly was chosen because of the keen interest of its members in ‘Crime and Safety’ and we hope this will translate into lots of Neighbourly members taking part and making a contribution. For much more detail about the project please read the PDF. We really appreciate your participation, thank-you.

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)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.

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.
