Keep your vehicle safe with the following tips ...

The Team from New Zealand Police

🚗 Vehicle parked in a visible location, or off the street if possible.
🚙 Valuables, including keys, removed from vehicle, or stored safely out of sight.
🚗 Vehicle locked & keys taken with you.
🚙 Keys & key chains do not display names, addresses, or license plate numbers.
🚗 Number plates secured with anti-theft screws (available at car accessory stores).
🚙 Alloy wheels secured with fit locking, anti-tamper wheel nuts.
🚗 Car ownership information stored at home, not in the vehicle.
🚙 Vehicle fitted with an anti-theft device, such as a steering wheel lock or alarm.
🚗 If the vehicle is keyless, ‘keys’ (or entry device) kept a safe distance from the car, away from doors & windows so the signal cannot be interfered with.
🚙 Get to know neighbours & their vehicles so you’ll know if you see something that doesn’t seem right.

Always report suspicious behaviour in your neighbourhood.

If it's already happened, phone 105 or report at 105.police.govt.nz.
If it's happening now, call 111.

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?
