Car broken into on symonds street Royal Oak

Mary from Onehunga

Hi Neighbours,

About 4.45am on Sunday morning, my car was broken into parked at the church on symonds street, Royal oak by the big Royal oak round about.

The priest of thee church woke to their house being burgled around the same time.

My handbag and laptop hidden under the shopping bags - which I normally would leave in of course - were stolen.

The laptop bag is very distinctive with a black back and strap and a NZ art design. The laptop is a silver HP.

Inside my handbag which is grey, was a few things including a sentimental ring from Tahiti with two pearls coming together. This would not. Normally be seen in NZ.

There was also a card holder wallet with credit cards, license etc.

They walked down symonds street towards Royal oak intermediate as many items from my bag were scattered along the footpath.

Any help would be amazing even security footage along this road.

A police report has been done.

Thank you all.

Mary

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?
