Inner City Wellington

Jill from Te Aro

Kia ora.

Inner-City Wellington (ICW) www.innercitywellington.nz... is the residents association for inner-city Wellington (the Te Aro/Wellington Central area).

There are around 15,000 people living in our small patch of the city, and over 120 apartment buildings in which many of us live.

ICW is keen to strengthen our communication with residents to share information about what's happening in this part of the city, invite your thoughts or insights about what you would like that might help create local neighbourhood communities, and to ask you about ways in which ICW can reflect your interests or concerns when we are liaising with the Councilors and Council team, and other local community organisations.

For example, together we could think about how neighbouring apartment buildings may have resources or equipment that could be shared in an emergency, and what green space and community facilities for a growing number of families and children living in apartments you want, and more

If you are in an apartment building in the inner city - or perhaps have friends or family living here - we'd love to hear from you. Please drop an email to:

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.

Combining biking with bus travel

Sue from Brooklyn

Hi neighbours
Anyone out there who, like me, would love to bike more, but have difficulty getting their bike on the rack on the bus ? It's sometimes necessary, so as to avoid steep hills and roads where I don't feel safe.
Metlink say their drivers aren't meant to help.
