Love Local Christmas

Simone Borgstede from Wellington City Council

It's officially the month of Christmas!

The next few months will see a host of exciting new initiatives joining established events to add extra festive colour to the city and support downtown retailers - brought to you by WellingtonNZ and WCC.

There will be a Shop on Shop off bus, parking specials, and a new Love Local Pop-Up Shop on the corner of Willis and Mercer Streets, featuring a unique partnership with some of our local favourites (hint...hint... Fix & Fogg and Fogg).

There'll also be a dynamic programme of free local live music, circus and other performances will appear in shops, parks and streets to make shopping more entertaining on Thursdays till Sundays throughout December.

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 banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
