Hedge trimming needed

Alesha from Saint Andrews

Hi, I was about to rent a hedge trimmer from hire pool for a quick job and saw there pricing! I realised it might be a better idea to see if anyone owns a trimmer and would like to do the job for the $50 I was going to spend renting it. It’s only a few camellia bushes that need a tidy up and figured the money is better in someone’s pocket rather than a big franchise.

Here’s the bushes that need trimming. Ignore the lawns we’re mowing them tomorrow 😂 also open to borrowing someone’s trimmer if they’re happy to lend!

We’re in Saint Andrews (neighbourly hasn’t updated my address.)

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?
