Give a Little - support for my sister

Tania from East Invercargill

Hi neighbours, givealittle.co.nz...
This post is for my sister, Carole, who has recently been diagnosed with advanced (stage 4) cancer. It's a ghastly diagnosis for anyone to receive, but it seems especially cruel because Carole's been through some difficult & stressful years, especially recently. Her daughter, and only child, passed away last year, under tragic circumstances, leaving her 3 children in Carole's care. Carole has been, and still is, their rock. If you are able to help us support Carole... our sister, nanna, aunty, who is very special to us, we are truly grateful. There is no expectation from us that you give, but there is a deep and loving gratitude for your kindness if you do. Arohanui, Tania

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.

When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
