CAB Youth Week

The team from Citizens Advice Bureau New Plymouth

It's CAB Youth Week! Each year we hold an awareness week to promote our service so more people around the motu know what Citizens Advice Bureau is about and how we can help. This year, we are prioritising young people.

We know that there are heaps of challenges facing young people today and we are here to help you navigate through. We will make sure you know what your rights are, so you can get a fair deal and feel empowered in the decisions you make.

Our services are free and confidential. Chat with us online via our website cab.org.nz, send us a message, call 0800 367 222 or visit a CAB near you. The New Plymouth office is at 32 Leach Street, beside YMCA, or ring 06 758 9542.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
