For two decades, Aotearoa’s favourite feathery showdown has crowned our top bird ... and the competition has never been fiercer.

Behind the fun is a serious mission. Many of New Zealand’s native species are in serious trouble. Bird of the Year raises awareness of their habitats, the threats they face, and how we can protect our feathered taonga. Important work that we love seeing!

Who was last year’s champ? 🏆 The Yellow-eyed penguin, one of the world’s rarest penguins. But this year, Neighbourly is keeping a close eye on another ocean wanderer: the Tītī (Cook’s petrel).

Who is getting your vote this year? 🐦💛

🗳 Voting closes: Sunday 28 September
🏅 Winner announced: Monday 29 September

We hope this brings a smile!

Letting go of the chase for romance and finding freedom in Addictive Eaters Anonymous

I can remember my mother saying to me, “Men don't like clingy women,” or words to that effect. But I knew that I would be incapable of doing anything else because the man would be the one to solve all my problems.

I'd always chased. I was the one who chased. I never waited for the man to become the hunter. I was always on the prowl. So, of course, it never worked out, because for whatever reason, I always seemed to get the ones who were as sick as I was. But I didn't realize that at the time.

Free Insurance Review (Business & Family)

Thomas from Riccarton

Most people we meet have insurance that no longer fits their life or business. Some do not have any cover at all. That is a risk many cannot afford.

For families, the right health and life cover means peace of mind knowing your partner and children are protected if something unexpected happens.

Most people we meet have insurance that no longer fits their life or business. Some do not have any cover at all. That is a risk many cannot afford.

For families, the right health and life cover means peace of mind knowing your partner and children are protected if something unexpected happens.

For businesses, it is about strategy. Covering employees with health insurance and looking out for your staff. Debt protection cover and keyperson buyout options make sure the company keeps running if something happens to a key owner or staff member.

Our insurance reviews are free and tailored to you. In 60 minutes we can dive into your situation, and find what suits your financial goals.

There is no cost and no obligation. Just clarity and peace of mind.
