This year's event runs from March 20 - 30th with the theme being 'The Great Plant Swap' as an easy way for neighbourhoods to grow stronger together.

Here's some ideas for ways you could get involved:

• swap seeds with a neighbour
• gift a plant you've grown to a neighbour
• take some flowers to a neighbour
• organise a produce swap
• share garden tips or recipes for food in season
• create community gardens or berm pollinator pathways
• host an inclusive garden-themed working bee
• a friendly neighbourhood BBQ with homegrown ingredients

The options are endless! At the end of the day, our shared aim is to help bring people together by encouraging intentional connection with our neighbours. Whether that be organising a street party, sharing a cuppa, or simply saying ‘Kia Ora!” to those who live around you, every action helps to create a safer and more connected New Zealand.

long. The pair were one of fifteen couples treated to a Valentine’s Day lunch at Bupa Fergusson Care Home in Upper Hutt with a theme of ‘Celebrating Love’. 
With a setting of red tablecloths and rose place mats, the special Valentine’s lunch menu included shrimp cocktail and bubbles for the couples. Joan says they hadn’t enjoyed a Valentine’s lunch together for quite a while and so found the treat ‘rather special’.

Brothels could soon start popping up across Upper Hutt, including in residential neighbourhoods and near schools and churches, after the council revoked a bylaw which effectively barred them from operating in the city.
Under the previous restrictions, which the New Zealand Prostitutes’ Collective described as "draconian” and potentially illegal, brothels could not open in Upper Hutt’s central business district, residential areas or within 200 metres of “sensitive sites”, such as schools, kindergartens or places of worship.
