Thank You

Irene from Alicetown

We would like to thank the very generous family who quite by chance came to be seated with us at Ichiban Teppanyaki, Lower Hutt last night. We were there to celebrate a birthday and although we did not know you we soon started chatting and sharing a few laughs. At the end of the evening when it became time to pay our bill, we found much to our absolute amazement, that it had already been paid. Having left before us and not realising what you had done, we were left quite speechless. We have done such lovely acts of kindness ourselves in the past, but to be the recipient on this occasion has completely blown us away. We hope that at some stage in the future that our paths may cross so that we can return the favour in kind, but if not we wish you well and hope your act of generosity is returned to you ten fold. This is certainly something that we will definitely never forget.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: As a customer, what do you think about automation?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
