Want to recognise your favourite local business?

Prospa

New Zealand's small businesses have had another tough few weeks. We're calling on you, wherever you are across the country, to recognise a local business making a difference in your community.

We all love a cheeky grin and a wave from our local grocer, or a toot from the delivery driver, or a coffee order that’s ready before we arrive. These are the business owners who remind us we're home.

Give your favourite local business owner the recognition they deserve by nominating them in the 2023 Prospa Local Business Hero awards.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Taranaki Daily News has been shining a light on local history by sharing images from the New Plymouth District Council’s Puke Ariki Heritage Collections 📸
