This month we’re rolling up our sleeves, putting up our hands, and saying ‘YES’ to giving our time and skills to projects that make Aotearoa a better place to live.

As a mostly volunteer-led organisation, our members know first hand the value and impact that a single volunteer can make in our communities. Imagine then how much can be achieved when several volunteers or even an entire street or neighbourhood decide to work together to achieve the same goal!

Whether you plan to coordinate your own volunteer driven activity, take part in one that’s already been setup, participate in National Volunteer Week (20-26 June), or simply show your own volunteers some extra love this month, know that every bit of effort to give back is a priceless investment in all of our futures.

Want to share your thoughts? Let us know how you’re getting involved this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to:

Our Mayor wants to lock away the PIF fund so it cannot be used for the purpose it was saved - do you agree?

Charles from Lynmouth - Moturoa

I too originally thought it was a good back-up and we were promised zero rates but then it exceeded NPDC debt by a considerable margin. Fact is however $250 million in early 2000's would now be 10x that so the longer we keep it the less it is worth.

Fact is however $250 million in early 2000's would now be 10x that so the longer we keep it the less it is worth. Appreciate it has off-set some rates but right through this whole period rates have continued to rise at an alarming rate and there is no sign of this trend reversing. By all means put aside say 100 million but the majority should be used to fix our broken pipes. In hindsight while ratepayers thought this was surplus money it was money that should have been spent on infrastructure at the time. The NPDC does not always know best but they like to blame the ratepayers. There are so many ways that this money can be spent to the lasting benefit of our community. Many of these were included in submissions to the NPDC 10 year LPT but so far have been ignored.
