Meet your St Heliers Neighbourly Lead: Andrea Dorn

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

"Hello, my name is Andrea and I live in St Heliers

I have been part of the Neighbourly family almost since its inception. I was chuffed to become a Neighbourly Lead while living in Meadowbank and naturally when I moved to St Heliers about 18 months ago, I wanted to still to be a Lead here too.

I love living in St Heliers as I am close to the beautiful Kohimarama Beach, but also close to Madills Farm; a great park where people walk their dogs all the time - I get to give lots of pats but no responsibility, though I would still love a dog and have thought of putting my name down on the waiting list for a retired Guide Dog.

As a ‘’mature’’ lady whose children have long flown the nest, Neighbourly is my morning companion. I check in daily to see what is going on whether it’s someone asking for advice or sharing a recommendation.

I’m really passionate about the Neighbourly site. I love that we can reunite pets with their owners, and give local recommendations. I had a situation once where I could not open the door of my safe!!! So many people gave me advice and I ended up using a recommended 'safe’ business to get into it again!"

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?
