'Neighbourhood Support' Upper Hutt
Hello all. Having recently been bemoaning our local 'Neighbourhood Support' demise, since the loss of our co-coordinator, Heather Blissett, I was surprised to receive a Newsletter arrive in my Inbox this morning. No longer of local interest to self as it is now 'regional'.
Are there other Neighbourhood Support Groups out there who feel the same?
Have any groups found a way to keep members in the know?
I would be interested in hearing from anyone who has any ideas.
Could / should our local Council and/or Police, step up with some format to help keep our communities informed and safe?
Would be great to begin a conversation here on Neighbourly as a starting point.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
