SOS - Community Safety Expo

Soozie from South New Brighton

S.O.S - Save Our SELVES, Save Our STUFF, Save Our SANITY, Save Our SUBURB
Dear Citizens of the Brighton beaches and beyond
For those of you who follow this page, you will be well aware of the recent crime being committed upon good hardworking folks. With that (and a lot more) in mind, a group of us have set up an idea to have a "S.O.S Expo"

The purpose of the SOS Expo is to empower the citizens of the shore suburbs with knowledge on how to take care of your property, personal safety and mental health.
We aim to provide an event in which you can come and learn from experts in their areas about these important topic, as well as fostering a much needed community spirit.

We plan on this happening on March 9th, at New Brighton School from 11am to 3pm

Get information from the Police Service, Fire & Emergency, Neighbourhood Support, Civil Defence, CCC - CPTED, AMI Insurance, FBI Security, Community Patrols, St Johns, Aged Concern and more
Learn some Self Defence in one of the workshops, watch a demonstration on how the online camera apps work, or teach your family about email scams

Our goal is to get all those listed to physically attend - however those who cannot, we aim to provide information on behalf of
Watch for flyers and posters with more information - coming soon.
P.S - PLEASE get in touch if this is something you can help us with! Either as a volunteer or a contributor! We are looking for children's entertainment, food trucks, and music

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

(Susan from Massey kindly provided this head-scratcher ... thanks, Susan!)

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?

Premature theft

Don from Parklands - Marshlands

Increasing the cost of fuel in anticipation before any actual justification I regard as blatant premeditated theft.
The CEO's who condone this premature theft for their share holders BEFORE they have any justified reasons will not be so quick and prematurely reduce the price when the situation is reduced.
Nor if the situation is quickly restored will they arrange payback if they have over reacted.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
