Are you having a baby soon?

The Team from Counties Manukau Health

If you or someone in your whaanau is due to give birth soon, we would like to reassure you that our Middlemore hospital birthing and assessment unit and maternity wards, and our birthing units in Botany Downs, Papakura and Pukekohe are open and operating as normal.

We have ways to keep you and baby safe as part of our planning for COVID-19 and there are things you can also do to support us: www.countiesmanukau.health.nz...

We look forward to seeing you when you are ready to give birth and if you have any questions or concerns, the best person to talk to is your midwife.

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?

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?
