When it was dark, my brothers would pick me up and we would walk the streets... I hated school and wanted to drop out early.

Then I was introduced to a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme for young people that need a boost in life. It helped me build my self-confidence and social skills.

We were paired with a mentor, my mentor Tony believed in me like no one else. Because of him I stayed in school, went to university and now have a full time job.

Don’t Let Clogged Gutter Destroy Your Home

Autumn brings the beautiful changing colours of trees and pleasant, cooler weather.

Autumn brings the beautiful changing colours of trees and pleasant, cooler weather.

However, it also means that gutters can become clogged with debris and fallen leaves, combined with recent havoc rains which can lead to serious problems if not addressed promptly.

This is why gutter cleaning service in autumn is so important.

Gutters play a vital role in maintaining the structural integrity of your home, by directing rainwater and melted snow away from the roof and foundation.

When gutters become clogged with debris, this can prevent water from flowing freely, causing it to overflow and potentially damage your home's foundation, walls, and roof.

This can result in costly repairs that could have been avoided with regular gutter cleaning.

Autumn often brings heavy rainfall and strong winds, which can exacerbate the problem of clogged gutters.

By having your gutters cleaned in autumn, you can rest assured that your home is protected against more unexpected weather conditions and that your gutters are functioning properly.

P.S. Do NOT leave your gutters like these.

Either do it yourself or get a Gutter Cleaning Specialist to remove the stress and hassle

Poll: Should we scrap daylight saving?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This Sunday we'll be putting our clocks back for the end of daylight saving. Despite the benefits of an extra hour of sun during daylight saving, these clock changes commonly bring disruptions to our households and sleep - some feel that it should be scrapped altogether. What do you think?

The Putāruru retirement village will have facilities from a heated swimming pool and picture theatre to doctors’ rooms and a bowling green.

Developer Tim Bartells is starting with a 254-villa village but says he'd like to increase that to 500 if he can buy some nearby land.

For many years, Lake Taupō has been inching closer to this small community.

What started as a gradual, insidious process – around half a metre of land falling into the lake yearly – has escalated. In the last two years, those nibbles have become bites, and Kuratau has lost large chunks of the foreshore.

Have you spotted this, or do you know of other areas where it's happening?
