To create safer, more caring communities we need to not only look after ourselves but those around us as well.
For the month of September, we want to come together to share ways to boost mental health and well-being. For example, you could host an online catch up or quiz, call a neighbour who lives alone, challenge your family and friends to try a new hobby or move your body more to improve your own well-being. If you or someone you know is going through a rough patch, don’t forget you can call or text 1737 anytime for free support from a trained counsellor.
Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re looking out for your well-being and helping others with theirs this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz

We are excited to announce that we will be operating during Level 3 as of Wednesday the 1st of September and we are able to look after your vehicle for WOF inspections, servicing, repairs, tyres and more.
😷 Our commitment during Level 3 is to keep us all safe by using strict procedures when dealing with you and your vehicle.
😷 We will carry out all work in a safe and hygienic manner, by wearing fresh gloves, sanitizing your keys, using disposable car seat covers, spraying and wiping down any contact surfaces externally and internally with alcohol based antibacterial products - e.g. steering wheels, indicator/wiper/light stalks, buttons, handles (interior and exterior), gear lever, handbrake lever and more. This sanitization is done before any work is carried out, and also after work is completed, prior to returning the vehicle to you.
😷 If you have a WOF or service that is due or overdue we will be sending out reminders very soon so keep an eye on your email/sms message inbox 🧐
😷 Please follow posted instructions as you enter our workshop carpark
😷 Our WOF While You Wait service will continue, however our waiting room will be closed during Level 3 so you are invited to book the time that suits and go for a walk or pop home while we work on your vehicle.
😷 As our waiting room will be closed we can offer a pick up and delivery service if you are unable to drop off your vehicle. This service also includes our decontamination process on-site. Just mention you require this service when you book.
😷 We have a number of contactless payment options available including internet banking, payWave and GenoaPay. Eftpos is also available using a sanitized pad.
😷 For bookings or queries please contact us on 033135329 or autossrangiora@gmail.com.
Our emergency breakdown/recovery service is still operational through this time also.
Stay safe guys ❤️

We're looking for lockdown gardening ideas! With New Zealanders stuck at home everyone is keen to get into their gardens, but they can't get to the shops to buy plants and seeds. So we want to hear from you some suggestions for crops you can start or sow from what you have on hand or useful gardening hacks using just what you have at home already without going to the shops.
It doesn't have to be a big idea - just something like growing spring onions from the base or sprouting avocado seeds to make a houseplant. Send your tips and ideas to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz and we'll publish the best ideas in NZ Gardener.
Make sure you include your full name and address - only your name and the region you live in will be published but if we use your tip we will send you a free copy of the magazine.
Dear neighbours,
Here's our list of the best new-release varieties of edible plants to grow this season.

Print apprentice Travis Jordan was named the Print Industry Apprentice of the Year, while Alex Huynh won the Workplace Trainer of the Year. For Travis, the award is an acknowledgement of the time and effort he has put into his craft.
“It’s really special and a reminder that you get out what you put in,” he says. “The award is something I’ll happily carry with me throughout my career.”
It's awesome to see not only one of our apprentices getting recognition, but also the skilled team member who trained him winning an award.

What is Reiki?
Reiki is a Japanese technique for stress reduction & relaxation that also promotes healing. Reiki is a system of natural healing whereby I position my hands just above or lightly on your fully clothed body while lying on a massage bed.
Benefits of Reiki Healing
Treats depression, enhances quality of life, boost mood, relieves pain, anxiety & fatigue. You don’t have to be spiritual to benefit from energy healing. Its recommended to go in with an open mind for maximum benefits If you are anxious, stressed or physically drained, an energy healing session can help you relax and feel more balanced.
In the meantime pop to my website for a super cool shopping experience browsing my products and more information on Reiki.
I would be so honoured and grateful to have you follow me and recommend my business on Neighbourly as well as my Facebook page. www.facebook.com....
Thank you
Love & Light
Rae

Here's what you need to know
- There will be regional boundaries, there will be no travel allowed between regions unless required for essential services.
- Boundaries maintained in the last February lockdown will be reinstated.
- Around 500 locations of interest have been identified.
- The exposure site in Warkworth is a large workplace. Ardern hoped the people of Northland will understand why they're moving with caution. Northland won't always be grouped in with Auckland.
