Only 3 weeks to go until Neighbours Day Aotearoa kicks off!
One way to take part is by joining or setting up a Neighbourhood Support group on your street.
Our Coordinator at Hastings District Council recently sent us this snap from a get together with residents from a new suburb who are keen to get Neighbourhood Support up and running.
To gauge interest, he hosted a free barbecue at a park with the support of their local New Zealand Police to bring neighbours together to discuss setting it up. Every group is different in how it chooses to operate. Our policy is whatever works best for your area!

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?

24.3% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
