A conversation that you’d probably rather not talk about

Waters Funerals

How do you cope when someone close is diagnosed terminally ill? What do you say or do? We know it’s not easy. Most people want to be treated as normally as possible, without always focusing on the illness.

So, let your loved one tell you what they want.

Let them guide you. And never underestimate the value of your presence. Lingering terminal illnesses are increasingly common, and challenging for families.

We know. That’s why we’re here to make your journey a little easier. Call us 7 days.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.

So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
