Help wanted

Katie from Stanmore Bay

✨ Does anyone have any connections to help my son see his dream car for his 14th birthday? ✨

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out with a hopeful heart. My amazing son Ollie is turning 14 on October 7th, and he has been absolutely obsessed with cars—especially the Lamborghini Aventador—since he was little. Becoming a car mechanic is his dream, and seeing this car in real life would mean the absolute world to him. 🚗💨

I’m a solo mum of two amazing boys, and right now I’m going through treatment for curable breast cancer. It’s been a tough few months, but we’re holding onto the little moments of joy and hope.

So I’m asking:
Does anyone have any connections to a car dealership, showroom, or collector who has a Lamborghini Aventador and would be willing to let Ollie see it up close? Even just a short visit would light up his world and create a memory he’ll never forget.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading and sharing. 💛
Please feel free to DM me or leave me a message here.

With Thanks,
Katie & Ollie

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?
