Please vote for our Gulf Harbour wee business

Robin from Gulf Harbour

We’re beyond honoured that NEWCREATION (Gulf Harbour) has been named a National Finalist in the 2025 Prospa Local Business Hero Awards! 🌟

👉 Vote here: www.neighbourly.co.nz...
(Just click our name in the poll – it takes 2 seconds!)

Here’s what Amy from Stanmore Bay said when they nominated us:

“This business quietly makes a big difference in the community.
They collect leftover materials from local builders and businesses — things that would usually go to waste — and turn them into creative, hands-on items for families and kids to decorate. And they give them away completely free. No strings attached, just a genuine act of kindness to brighten people’s lives.
On top of that, they create and sell beautiful artwork, using the profits to fund a new mental health initiative that’s focused on making real support more accessible for everyday Kiwis.
It’s clear they’re driven by purpose and heart — especially knowing their own son has just come through remission from leukaemia. Their journey has inspired them to give back even more, and it shows in everything they do.”

If that sounds like the kind of mahi worth celebrating — please vote for us! 🌠 shorturl.at...

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
