Will you help us keep woofers warm over winter?

The National Team from

This winter, our SPCA Wellington and Masterton Centres are heading out into the community to supply blankets and jackets to dogs living outside in kennels in the Wellington and Wairarapa region.

Just like us, animals feel the chill and over the winter months, so it’s important to provide your pets with extra shelter and more blankets to keep them dry and warm. It’s getting cold out there and our animals need protection from the elements too!

SPCA doesn’t want to see any dogs going without this winter. But... we need YOUR help to make this happen! Do you have any unused blankets or dog jackets? Our Wellington and Masterton Centres would greatly appreciate any donations of blankets and dog jackets to help canines out in the cold! Your donations will be vital in making a difference for dogs in our community.

If you have any blankets or dog jackets that you would like to donate, these can be dropped off at our Wellington or Masterton Centres, or at one of the following locations listed on our website: www.spca.nz.... We will be accepting donations for two weeks, from today till the 27 June.

Is your outside dog in need of a blanket for their kennel and a jacket this winter? Or do you know someone who would appreciate these items for their outdoor canine? Please reach out to our team by emailing wellington.info@spca.nz, with information on how many dogs require blankets and their sizes, and our team will be in touch.

PLEASE NOTE: This service is only available in Wellington and Wairarapa. Conditions apply, for more information please visit our website at www.spca.nz...

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.

How much does it cost to join AEA?

There are no dues or fees for joining AEA or attending AEA meetings. We are self-supporting through our own voluntary contributions. At some point during each meeting we pass the basket to help cover expenses, such as the cost of rent and literature. Members are not obliged to contribute, but we usually do so to the extent we are able.
