'5G Technology's Impact on Health and the Environment'

The rollout of 5G EMF technology by telecommunications companies in 2020 on the whole of New Zealand is without public consultation or consent.


Contrary to what is being reported in the media - 5G is not "just" the next step in mobile phone technology - there is significant scientific research that raises legitimate concerns for the health and safety of our community from this untested technology.

Current policy allows high density 5G antennas and cellphone towers to be installed everywhere for the proposed Internet of Things (IoT).



Visiting guest speaker Adjunct Professor Dariusz Leszczynski, will talk on research evidence about biological and health effects, about the precautionary principle for EMF and about research that has been done, and not done, on 5G millimeter waves.




Professor Leszczynski is an internationally recognised expert in the health effects of wireless radiation, with doctorates in molecular biology (DSc) and biochemistry (PhD). His twenty-plus years with the Finnish Radiation and Nuclear Safety Authority, where he was responsible for research on biological and health effects of non-ionizing radiation, make him uniquely placed to offer informed commentary on the potential adverse health effects of 5G. He is a most experienced and considered speaker on this topic.


Dr. Leszczynski says, ““In my lectures I will present the current scientific knowledge as well as the current lack of scientific research on the biological and health effects of the 5G millimeter-waves. I will also present the evidence, and the reasoning, for the invocation of the Precautionary Principle and for the temporary moratorium on 5G deployment, while awaiting for the much needed scientific research on millimeter-waves.”

Professor Leszczynski will be joined by Environmental Lawyer, Sue Grey, for a Q & A session afterwards

This promises to be a really informative event on an issue that is going to affect all New Zealanders.
We hope you can join us.

Six tips for improving security around your home

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

1) Improve outdoor lighting
Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.

2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.

3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.

4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.

5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.

6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property

Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.
