Last Call - Christmas Day Lunch Invite for our beloved Elders ❤️🎅

Kim Neighbourly Lead from Mount Roskill

Closing invites on Sunday 15th December.


Howdy Neighbours :-)

My tween daughter and I (Single mum) would like to invite an elderly person or 5 into our home to share a meal together. (LOL So far we have 10 of us attending).

We are well aware that there are many out there who spend this Special day alone. This year, you don't need to.

Last year, on Christmas Day, we invited our Neighbours over, and ended up with 15 of us here. It was a wonderful time.

This year, our family are having an early, and a late, get together.

In the past, we have volunteered at the City Mission Dinners.

This year, it's all about YOU!! Our elders ❤️

If you are an elder, or you know of an elderly person or couple, who will be spending their Christmas Day alone this year, please get in contact with us for a chat. We would love to hear from you.

Come to our home. Share in some joy and have a few laughs over a meal and bubbles (Sparkling Grape Juice/Lemonade).

It is good for my daughter to see these things happen, and for her to take part.

So, who out there knows who our next guest may be?

Have a great day Neighbours. Safe travels.

To those of us who have loved ones who have passed on and won't be with us this year ...... *So close, not matter how far ......"

Peace, Love and Light xx ❤️🎅

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?
