We are now LIVE with three exciting plans, alongside Let's Get Wellington Moving, that will transform how we live, invigorate our city, and create attractive transport choices that help to reduce our carbon emissions.

Consultations are now open, so have your say on Our City Tomorrow!

⭐ Let’s Get Wellington Moving – Mass Rapid Transit: Public transport that moves more people, more conveniently and comfortably.

⭐ Paneke Pōneke – Bike Network Plan: Our goal is to be a city where it’s easy for people of all ages and abilities to choose low or zero carbon transport options. Creating a connected bike network in tandem with big public transport improvements will make that possible.

⭐ Draft District Plan: The District Plan is the city’s planning rule book. It addresses key issues through new planning settings such as controls for quality housing, enabling development and protecting the city’s natural environment.

SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Peggy

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

"Hi there, my name is Peggy and boy am I a ball of energy. I have not had the best start to life so would love a second chance at happiness.

I can be a little wary in new situations and meeting new people, so would love an experienced and patient home. One that has the time to put in the extra training I need as I have not had much. I am very food motivated so will pick things up quickly. I can be very puppy like when comfortable around my people so require a home with older teenagers or an only adult home, one that is confident around larger than life personalities. The team here have mixed me with other dogs, so I could go to a home with an existing dog. One that is social and has a similar play style to me. A dog that is happy to share their space and their humans. I have yet to be cat tested. If you think I am the dog for you please contact the canine team for more information."

Pancake is now dead, killed by this very same dog, according to workers who were on a roof close by. We are devastated by the loss of our beloved 5 year old Pancake. The workers also said that a neighbour came to see the scene, but did not inform us of anything (we could make have tried to resuscitate her. I don't know if the person who came was the owner of the dog who was let to wonder freely and is a true danger to small pets.
I want the owner to hear this: Having a dog comes with responsibility and respect for others. Don't have one if you are not capable of doing this.

Each year our breast health nurses travel around New Zealand in our iconic Pink Caravan, to talk about mammograms, offer advice about checking your breasts, healthy lifestyles and family risk.

Our nurses have valuable advice about symptoms, treatments, support groups and post-surgery options. The breast care nurses have visual and hands-on displays of breast cancer symptoms that most women won’t have seen before, and will use prosthetic breasts to show what a lump feels like.

We are currently touring the North Wellington region with the Pink Caravan.
Our breast nurses would love to have a chat to you, so check out where the Caravan is headed and when it comes to a town near you, pop in and say hi.

- On 2 November, our team of breast care nurses will park the Pink caravan in Churton Park for the day at New World store (69 Lakewood Avenue, Churton Park, Wellington)

- On 4 November, the Pink caravan will be parked in Johnsonville for the day at Countdown store (71 Johnsonville Road, Johnsonville, Wellington)

- On 9 November, the Pink caravan will be parked in Newlands for the day at New World store (Cnr Newlands and, Bracken Road, Newlands, Wellington)

Khandallah Village Market: Online!

What this means is local (i.e Wellington based) makers will have the opportunity advertise their wares in the event page. You will need to contact the maker directly to organise a purchase/delivery. This may be the case for the December market.
As much as we would love to see you in person, the level 2 restrictions make it infeasible to operate on site. We hope that this is an acceptable compromise, and that you will continue to support local!

There, they're and their!

NumberWorks'nWords Johnsonville

There, they’re and their are the big trio of commonly confused words with all three of them pronounced the same.
- There means the opposite of here; “at that place.”
- They’re is a contraction of “they are” or “they were.”
- Their means “belongs to them.”
