HOMELESS - We are looking for a rental

Lee from Golflands

Hi all,
Some of you may have heard of our story through the grapevine or in social media. My family and I lost our home two weeks ago due to an electrical fault causing a fire which burnt everything we own and the house completely. Now with COVID-19 pandemic we are struggling to get viewings to properties. Any help around this would be greatly appreciated. We are ideally looking for a 5 bedroom house (My wife and I, 3 girls and granny live together), or 4 bedroom and granny cottage/flat attached. We also have non shedding 2 outside dogs which are currently being looked after by our neighbours. Our child goes to Elim school in Botany, and Trinity Kindy in Howick, so looking to live around east Auckland. Can afford rent of $650 - $800 (at a push).
For more details or other ways to help:

Thank you so much

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
