Keep your vehicle safe with the following tips ...

The Team from New Zealand Police

๐Ÿš— Vehicle parked in a visible location, or off the street if possible.
๐Ÿš™ Valuables, including keys, removed from vehicle, or stored safely out of sight.
๐Ÿš— Vehicle locked & keys taken with you.
๐Ÿš™ Keys & key chains do not display names, addresses, or license plate numbers.
๐Ÿš— Number plates secured with anti-theft screws (available at car accessory stores).
๐Ÿš™ Alloy wheels secured with fit locking, anti-tamper wheel nuts.
๐Ÿš— Car ownership information stored at home, not in the vehicle.
๐Ÿš™ Vehicle fitted with an anti-theft device, such as a steering wheel lock or alarm.
๐Ÿš— If the vehicle is keyless, โ€˜keysโ€™ (or entry device) kept a safe distance from the car, away from doors & windows so the signal cannot be interfered with.
๐Ÿš™ Get to know neighbours & their vehicles so youโ€™ll know if you see something that doesnโ€™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.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the โ€œunpaid shiftโ€) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?

Poll: Would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿฆ

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Canterbury, you have a hidden treasure right on your doorstep ... though it does come with a 1.5-hour walk up the stunning Rakaia Gorge Walkway.

Along the trail youโ€™ll find The Fantail Shop showcasing small artworks by local artisans. Even better, every purchase supports the Fantail Trust, helping protect and restore biodiversity on the north bank of the gorge.

So weโ€™re curious: would you take a 1.5-hour hike for a shop? (And for local biodiversity, of course ๐ŸŒฟ)
