The Greens have announced support for voting at 16.

Green party co-leader James Shaw said he saw "switched on" young people demanding to be heard by politicians. They were desperately unhappy about the decisions political leaders were making about their futures.

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?

Helping local tradies stay on top of admin

Oliver from Stratford

Hi neighbours 👋
I’m Ollie from Your Tradie Support, based here in Stratford and helping tradies across NZ with the admin side of running their business.
A lot of tradies are brilliant at the work itself but end up doing quotes, invoicing and paperwork late at night after being on the tools all day — that’s where I help.
I don’t do bookkeeping — I help keep the day-to-day admin organised so everything runs smoother and easier.
If you know a local tradie who’s drowning in paperwork or always behind on invoices, feel free to point them my way 🙂
Always happy to chat and help where I can.
