And they're off... ๐Ÿš—๐Ÿ’จ

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

Cissy and Sam, have recently hit the road in the lead up to the 10th celebration of Neighbours Day Aotearoa. As they drive across the country theyโ€™ll be running workshops and reaching out to meet people who are working to create great neighbourhoods across New Zealand - like our members!

Whether you're planning a Neighbours Day Event or just want to come along and share ideas, these workshops are a great way to further connect with your local community and see how you can come together to support each other.

Join in on the fun by seeing if the road trip is coming to your corner of the country at the link below.

If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.

Warnings about scams

The Team from New Zealand Police

This Fraud Awareness Week, weโ€™re reminding everyone to stay sharp and look out for the warning signs of scams to stop them before they start.

Hereโ€™s what to watch out for:
๐Ÿ” Unrealistic offers or promises of easy money that are too good to be true
๐Ÿ” Pressure tactics: Scammers may rush or threaten you to act immediately.
๐Ÿ” Requests for personal info: Be cautious if youโ€™re asked for bank details, passwords, or sensitive information.
๐Ÿ” Unusual payment methods like gift cards, cryptocurrency, or wire transfers.
๐Ÿ” Unverified contacts: Emails, calls, or messages from unknown or suspicious sources.

How to protect yourself:
โœ… Stop and think before sharing personal details or making payments.
โœ… Don't click on any links until you know that it is safe.
โœ… Verify the source: Contact the organisation directly using official channels.
โœ… If somethingโ€™s not right, it's OK to hang up, walk away, ignore it and move on.

If you wish to report a scam, contact Police on 105 or report it online via 105.police.govt.nz/use-105.
