During the heightened response to Covid-19, we are still progressing with critical projects. Some of the work involved in these projects may include a short interruption to your water supply.

Usually we let our customers know about this with a letter a couple of days beforehand. But, to ensure the safety of our community and frontline essential staff, letter drops have stopped.

We’ll continue to do our absolute best to inform you about planned service interruptions using other methods such as:
• Loud speakers
• Signs up in the street
• Social media
• Website updates

Of course, during service failures like bursts the water can be interrupted without warning. In times like these we will respond by having water available on site and letting you know about it via social media.

Council contact centres are will have this information too – so please give them a call in the first instance.

Making the most of your food

Simone Borgstede from Wellington City Council

Lockdown is the perfect time to get creative and use up those ingredients that have been sitting in the back of your cupboard. It's fun and reduces the amount of food you’ll need to buy, the packaging you’ll need to dispose of and how often you'll need to leave home.

With everyone staying home, it’s now more important than ever for everyone to be fire-safe. People can find information on our website - fireandemergency.nz...

We’re heading into winter, and with households self-isolating together, there’ll be more cooking at home, and more use of open fires, heaters, and dryers - all things which can increase fire risk.

New Zealanders can be confident that Fire and Emergency is well-prepared and ready to respond to emergencies as usual during the nationwide self- isolation period.

Please call 111 if you have a fire, we will ask you whether anyone at the address is self-isolating or has a confirmed case of COVID-19. Where this is the case, we already have necessary measures in place to ensure everyone’s safety including protective clothing, gloves, masks, safety glasses and mask.

Well now you can - live, in your living room.

The Neighbourly team is super grateful to our friends at Royal New Zealand Ballet for their support over the years - so we're excited to be telling our Neighbourly members about their very special event: Live in your Living Room.

This weekend, grab a cuppa and some gingerbread and venture in to the dark, fantastical realm of Hansel & Gretel. Inspired by the old-fashioned magic of silent movies and music hall vaudeville, this ballet will transport you to a magical world with large-scale cinematic effects, world premiere choreography by Loughlan Prior and a specially commissioned score by Claire Cowan.

Live in your Living Room. This curated series of productions from the RNZB archive will be broadcast weekly on Facebook Premiere.

Enjoy performances at Friday 3 April at 7.30pm; Saturday 4 April at 1.30pm and Sunday 5 April at 10.30am.

This is a really uncertain time but what is shining through is the kindness of people and the coming together to achieve a common goal and it is because of this that I know there will be a very big place for www.freeforall.co.nz.... After all the whole website is based around sharing a common goal of waste reduction and the random kindness choosing to share and item instead of selling it or throwing it away.

For now please don't use the website until we are through the lockdown but when we can, please start sharing and rehoming with passion!! Don't stop talking about us and sharing the website because there may be a whole lot of people who will be very thankful.

I just want to thank you all for catching my crazy and seeing the sense in getting back to sharing not dumping and here's to a safe passage through Covid-19.

Many blessings and stay safe xxx
