Celebrate Community - March 1st to 31st đ
This month is all about bringing your community together and having a great time! We want March to be all about celebrating the connections we have while making new ones along the way. As we all know, what makes a neighbourhood great isnât the houses and cars, gardens and streets - itâs the people who share their presence and aroha with each other.
A wonderful way to take part is to participate in Neighbours Day Aotearoa which takes place from 20 - 30th March. This yearâs theme is âThe Great Plant Swapâ - as an easy way for our neighbourhoods to grow stronger together. If youâre hosting an event, make sure to register it on their website: neighboursday.org.nz/join-in
Show us how youâre celebrating community this month by tagging us in your social media posts or emailing us your photos, videos, or experiences to: info@neighbourhoodsupport.co.nz


Ryman: Your new way of living
Your retirement should be stress-free and full of adventure. Life in a Ryman village can open the door to endless opportunities.

Youâll benefit from a supportive community, as well as organised activities, outings and fabulous amenities to keep you entertained. If your needs change, our villages offer comprehensive care options.

Nomination Quote - Jazz and his family - Bossman Dairy - Creagh St Store
"Every member of this family who serves in the shop are very friendly, helpful and always smiling. They get to know all their customers and I have never walked into a shop that makes you feel so welcome. During our first lockdown for Covid, they put food such as milk, bread, out for people who may need it free of charge."
