Are you keen to become a Neighbours Aotearoa “Champ"?
Since 2009, Neighbours Aotearoa has been encouraging people to connect at a street level. Whether it's a friendly wave, sharing tea or crops, or hosting a neighborhood gathering - these connections are the building blocks of stronger and more vibrant communities.
We want to grow this movement but we can't do this alone! As a small yet dedicated team, we need your support to reach even more neighborhoods in 2024.
Are you keen to become a Neighbours Aotearoa “Champ"? Your role is simple: spread the message about Neighbours Aotearoa in your community, town, city, neighbourhood, or street.
We've got packs filled with flyers and posters ready to send across the motu. You know your community best, so you can decide where they go.
All you need to do is fill out a quick form, and we'll send a physical pack to your doorstep in early January!
Or tag someone who you think would be keen.

Civic Honour Awards 2024
Congratulations to Jenni Moore, Marilyn Cox, Don McDonald-Spice, and Dr George Perera; the 4 recipients of our 2024 Civic Honour Awards. A Civic Honour is the highest award we can bestow, recognising outstanding voluntary service to the community.
🏅🏅🏅🏅
Between them Dr Perera, Marilyn, Don and Jenni have served the widest needs of diverse communities - medical, social, cultural, artistic, environmental and much more. They have shown a deep understanding of people, issues, and the enormous relief and sometimes joy, that a helping hand can provide. Each is an example of the best each of us can offer to the community in our lifetime. It is a privilege to give the recognition they deserve, and we'll be telling you more about each of their stories in the coming weeks.
Do you know someone else who deserves this recognition? Nominations are now open for next year's ceremony, and must be made by 1 May 2025: www.wdc.govt.nz...
