2 b/r unit/townhouse/house

Donna from Otaki District

I am a single lady 65 yrs of age non-smoker, don’t drink and very quiet but with a disability and about to do my third shift in two years because of;
rental house was sold after living there for eleven years
The owners of the rental I was in had a serious situation which resulted in rental house being sold
The owner decided not to renew my lease so that her brother could move in

All these places were agreed that I would be there long term which the first one was and yes I know that being in a rental is not a secure position to be in.

Because my physical health is deteriorating I am looking for a long term 2 bedroom house/unit/townhouse which would be a single story place, with a shower (not one over a bath as I would not be able to get into the shower) and a garage with an auto opener as I would not be able to open the door otherwise. A garage or shed is needed to house the mobility scooter. Currently I am paying $360 a week and anything higher would be as crippling as my physical health. As I am currently in Otaki that is my first area to be thinking of but would also consider Waikanae and maybe Paraparaumu. Anything further South or North is out of the question

Please don’t tell me to apply for a council place or a housing place because I have applied for those but there are hundreds of people before me needing a roof over their heads as well and yes I look on Trade Me several times a day
Please contact me on 06 364 0192 or labrysdonna@gmail.com

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
