What are your winter-warming hacks?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Hi - I'm Tim Costley, National Party Candidate for the Ōtaki Electorate. I am a guy who is known for getting things done. Who turns up and works hard and can deliver for all of us here in Horowhenua and Kāpiti.

I have spent the last 22 years serving in our Air Force as a pilot and in various leadership roles, serving both at home and overseas.

I’m motivated by helping people, from the charity I founded over 13 years ago for Air Force families, to work here at home helping our local community.

Now I want to bring my skills and experience to serve our community more broadly as your next local MP.

- Mounted rear fender tool bag ($50)
- Ultra HD tubes front & back

A petition is circulating to get curtains added as part of the Healthy Homes Standards in the hopes of helping renters avoid living in cold, damp conditions. Do you think curtains should be mandatory for New Zealand homes?
