Hi I am new to the area and in need of transport around the Waikanae area. I have tried Uber and other taxi services but unfortunately none cover the area. I was given a number for Sunshine taxis but it says the number is invalid. I'm just wondering if anyone knows any taxi services that cover… View moreHi I am new to the area and in need of transport around the Waikanae area.

We have fabulous emergency water tank kits available for purchase. These will help with emergency water for your family, house mates and pets. In an emergency you'll need in water supplies for up to eight days for drinking, food prep and keeping clean – that's a lot of stored water!
WREMO and The Tank Guy have supplied us with 200-litre water tank kits, for sale at our service centres for just $105 – these are usually $265, so we think this is a great deal.
They come with everything you need to fit them to your downpipes, are UV resistant, and small enough to transport in most cars.

Hi Neighbour,
How well do you know your customers? That might seem like a redundant question but let’s dig a little deeper.
Do you know their age? Their income? The values that resonate with them? Where do they live? Do they have a family? How do they like to spend their spare time?

How well do you know your customers? That might seem like a redundant question but let’s dig a little deeper.
Do you know their age? Their income? The values that resonate with them? Where do they live? Do they have a family? How do they like to spend their spare time?
As you answer these questions (and as many others as you can come up with) you’ll start to build clear customer personas that will help you tailor the experience you provide to fit the needs of your customers.
We’ve got a whole series of bite-sized videos on customer personas and customer experience waiting for you over on our website, so if 2022 is the year you take your business to the next level head on over and get started today!

Kāpiti Coast District Council (KCDC) is running a series of hui to find out what the housing issues are for a range of communities in Kāpiti.
They approached Paekākāriki Pride to get the word out to our Rainbow communities and they would love to meet with you over a kai and cuppa to korero.
Information from the hui 2-4pm on Saturday 15 January at St Peter’s hall will feed into a plan or strategy to address the issues for our communities.
Paekākāriki Pride says “We know it can be really tough when you’re looking for a rental property and you don’t know if you should come out because you don’t know if the landlord is homophobic, biphobic or transphobic.
“We know a lot of us have fur kids and this can be a huge barrier to finding a house. Some of our trans, non-binary and gender diverse whanau have been rejected by their families and can find themselves homeless or sleeping rough.
“In general, our community earns less than the general population so buying a house (especially in Kāpiti) is an impossible dream for us. What are some of the other issues that affect us as queer folks? Come share your ideas, experiences and thoughts with us.”
A Kāpiti Council spokesperson says the rainbow housing hui this Saturday is part of Council’s wider needs assessment to determine our district’s current and emerging housing and social requirements, examine their nature and causes, and set priorities for future action. You can read about this important mahi here: www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
“Through November and December we met with many community groups to understand their housing and social needs – this is the last of these events. We also had over 1,300 people complete our community housing survey and ran a separate survey with the business community. You can read about the survey and next steps here: www.kapiticoast.govt.nz...
Note: This is a vaxxed event so please bring your vaccination pass. If you don’t have one, we still want to hear from you in a questionnaire that you can send to KCDC.
Over the last few days, when I open the 'Stuff' site, the Neighbourly content accompanying the page relates to Christchurch. Of little interest to me, and I wonder if anyone else is having this problem. Fortunately I bookmarked the Kapiti site, any comments would be welcome.
