Are you planning an event for Neighbour's Day this year?

Reporter Marlborough Express

Neighbours Day Aotearoa is a fun way to celebrate and connect with your neighbours, as knowing your neighbours helps combat loneliness and isolation in our communities.
This year, the organisers have created a theme - The Great Plant Swap - to offer neighbours a tangible symbol of togetherness and belonging, in a way that allows for either active or non-contact participation, whether Aotearoa is in Alert Level 1 or 4.
Neighbours Day Aotearoa runs from March 20-30, with almost 400 registered events already confirmed from Whangarei to Invercargill, and more being added every day.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
