FREE BOTTLE SWAP

Sarah Gray from Vector Ltd

With the power still out for many Auckland families, lots of you have been cooking on your gas barbecues. To help out a little, our sister company OnGas will be swapping 9kg LPG bottles, free of charge to people affected by the storm.

When: Friday 4pm to 6pm (or while stock lasts)

Where: outside Central Landscape Supplies, 598 Swanson Road, Swanson and Parrs Park, 479 West Coast Road, Glen Eden

What: bring your empty 9kg LPG bottle and we’ll swap it for a full one

Note: One bottle per person while stocks last. Please bring proof you live in the area (like a power bill). We can’t swap dented or excessively rusty bottles. Standard terms apply.

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?

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?
