Talking Migraine

Danielle Muller from Epsom Community Centre

Migraine Foundation Aotearoa New Zealand will be joining us on Wednesday 16 August at 6.30pm for their first in-person migraine information evening.

They'll be talking migraine with two of Auckland's foremost experts on migraine and pain – Neurologist, Dr Rosamund Hill and Pain Specialist, Dr Paul Vroegop – to get two different specialists' perspectives on this most disabling yet under-researched and under-treated neurological disorder. Come and find out what you can do as an individual to manage your migraine disease, treatments available in New Zealand and where migraine care is at in New Zealand.

The evening will include a Q&A session, so come prepared with questions. For more information and to buy tickets, visit www.eventfinda.co.nz...

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

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!
