Shift to Thrift at Red Cross Shops this September!

Red Cross

Hi neighbours! September is the perfect time to Shift to Thrift and enjoy the joy of second-hand shopping. Our Nelson Red Cross Shops are bursting with treasures this spring – from quality pre-loved clothing and shoes to books, furniture, homeware and gifts. Every purchase supports the humanitarian work of New Zealand Red Cross right here in our communities, while giving pre-loved items a new life.

We’ve got two shops ready to welcome you, both open 7 days a week (including Sundays!):
📍 Nelson City Centre – 52 Vanguard Street, Nelson CBD
📍 Richmond – 302 Queen Street, Richmond

Pop in this month, find a bargain, and shop with purpose.

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.

🐟 Spot something fishy in Nelson-Tasman?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

DOC needs your help! Two boats have been spotted showing unusual and suspicious behaviour in our marine reserves.

A new Coastwatch group—made up of government agencies and local residents—is keeping a closer eye on our waters, but more eyes mean better protection.

Can you help identify these two boats? Your tip could help protect our marine life!
