Love Where You Live - February 1st to 29th šŸ„°

The Team from Neighbourhood Support New Zealand

Love is in the air this month! Weā€™re not just talking about Valentineā€™s Day... weā€™re talking about this monthā€™s national campaign.

Our theme for February is all about finding ways to show your home and community a little extra love and care. Whether itā€™s organising a street clean up, helping a neighbour tidy up their property, putting together a working bee, or installing a communal pātaka or library - there are countless ways to make our neighbourhoods more enjoyable for everyone.

Donā€™t forget to share the love! Let us know how youā€™re improving your neighbourhood this month by email or tag us online and include the following hashtag:

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 wouldnā€™t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
Do you think NZ should follow suit? Vote in our poll and share your thoughts below.
