2019 Christmas Foodbank Food Drive
The 2019 Christmas Foodbank Food Drive is taking place on Monday 2nd December from 5.30pm until late.
We encourage everyone to get involved in this event (please invite and tag your friends); donations are distributed back into your community to families and people in need throughout 2020.
The food drive takes place in New Plymouth and Bell Block - the collection goes ahead RAIN, HAIL OR SHINE!!
If you are able to help we would greatly appreciate donations of non-perishable food items and/or household products.
Donations can be left near your letterbox for collection, or hand them to our friendly volunteers as the collection teams drive around your neighbourhood. You should be able to hear the sirens or music when they are in your area.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

What's your favourite recipe for courgettes?
Kia ora neighbours. If you've got a family recipe for courgettes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our January 2025 issue.
Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
