Please can people sign

Rebekah from Milson

Hi neighbours,

My name is Rebekah and I was newly diagnosed with Functional Neurological Disorder and Movement Disorder.

I am planning to get this condition recognised as a physical neurological disability that doesn't go away. It isn't temporary to access funding and things.

I have a big heart and my aim is to get it recognised worldwide so people can access funding and more assistance and also not being told "they are mental, it's all in your head, it's your brain tricking you" it goes alot deeper than that. It causes physical symptoms.

Also fnd people have other conditions it isn't all related to fnd...

I would also like any that are diagnosed with this later in life to have no more mistreatment and disbelief as I have constantly and get access to funding and also make it viral so everyone knows it exists and it is very debilitating.

Please if you could sign it would really help ☺️


Sorry for any that couldn't sign, the link expired 😅 thank you to everyone that signed 😀 really appreciate you all.

I also have other goals to help people struggling with this as I have become quite ill now and losing weight. I am doing tutoring, have an Etsy shop (still in progress where I have created characters representing people with different health conditions and symptoms), podcast, hopefully a food business eventually too.

For people who replied I have been able to stand for at least 16 seconds after three years, it is on and off." I've been pushed to do physio, but it actually worsened me last year, so I am trying to stand every now and then. Sorry to people that have no assistance. Hopefully, my entrepreneur goals will succeed as I want to help you all 🥲 It hurts reading stories of others suffering from this. My tip is to keep fighting 💪 and I am here if you need to talk.

I will have a linktree where people can see what I get up to 😊

Sign if you haven't already. Message me if the link fails. Hopefully, it does.

Poll: 🤖 What skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Reserve Bank has shared some pretty blunt advice: there’s no such thing as a “safe” job anymore 🛟😑

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.

We want to know: As the world evolves, what skills do you think give a CV the ultimate edge in a robot-filled workplace?

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
