Anzac Day Saturday 25 April, we are all joining together to commemorate our people who were killed in war and to honour our returned and servicing servicemen and women. This day was first celebrated since 1916, so long may it live on! How fortunate we all are, even in the midst of fighting a slightly different battle with Covid-19, don’t let your guard down by lowering your shields until we have won this war as it too will go down in history! 🛡
These ladies in Marlborough aged care facilities sure know how to get through lockdown in style! Noeline Harvey, 80, loves to play table tennis and occasionally dances to Neil Diamond in her wheelchair. And 100-year-old Olive Waite even had a perm this week in her retirement village.

Download this pdf of a poppy, by award-winning illustrator Sharon Murdoch, to print off and stick in a front window - To show that even in lockdown, in our small bubbles, we shall not forget. That we can still say thank you for the sacrifices, we can still pay tribute to the bravery of so many.

The impact will depend on a huge number of factors including how long the country is in an Alert Level 4 lockdown, the level of unemployment, consumer and business confidence levels, people’s ability to access finance (and finance their own mortgages) and how long the wider economy takes to recover; the question is how long will it take to recover? The good news is and one things for sure, properties will still be purchased and sold, it will just be a different market from where we left off, before COVID-19!
Following on from yesterday's tiny house story, here's single mum Shaye sharing her experience in isolation
Dear Nelson, Marlborough and Tasman - ANZAC Day will look a little different for us this year - however there are many ways for you to acknowledge the incredible men and women who have served our communities and given their lives for our country.

We invite you to share a memory or photo to commemorate this special day on Neighbourly below. It could be a story of a member in your family who served - or perhaps the way you and your family celebrate ANZAC Day each year. (It might even be a photo of your freshly baked can't be-beaten ANZAC cookies).
We also invite you to take part in Stand at Dawn and join us at 6:00 am on Saturday 25 April. Stand at your letterbox, at the front door, in your lounge rooms, balconies, in your driveway. Wherever you are in the world, stand with us and take a moment to remember our fallen – but please stay within your ‘bubble’.
