A big thank you to everyone who nominated a small business in this year's Prospa Local Business Hero awards - and who got behind our 11 regional finalists and voted.

And a huge congratulations to Meg Wilson - the founder of PAWS (Pet Animal Welfare Shops) across South Waikato! Meg's passion for pets received almost 20% of votes which has seen her walk away with a prize package worth $10,000 to support the work she and her team of volunteers do each day.

Thank you Neighbourly members for rallying around businesses in your community and continuing to show them how valued they are!

"A magical afternoon spent at Silverstream today! A good variety of birds to be seen too! As we got out of the car in the driving range, a kotāre was sitting on the power line to welcome us!
It was funny that Clive and I were just talking about me having seen a magpie taking a bath in the water when I last visited, then a few minutes later after watching 3 kereru and 2 magpies who had been fighting each other earlier on, all sitting in the same tree together, suddenly one of the magpie decided to hop into the water and take a bath much to our delight! There was also a chaffinch taking a bath further up the stream."

What are your winter-warming hacks?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

June is upon us, so it's well and truly time to hunker down for the colder temperatures. For some across Aotearoa, this just means a second duvet on the bed. And for others, it's defrosting your car windscreen daily and bringing out the heaters.

Sam was disengaged and struggling to find meaning in his daily routine of attending school, doing chores, and playing video games. Then, he was invited to join a Graeme Dingle Foundation programme, which introduced him to the outdoors.

After the wilderness adventure, Sam became more confident and self-assured, and his teachers noticed a positive change in his sociability and willingness to ask questions in class.

He developed a "give-it-a-go" attitude. Inspired by his newfound passion for the outdoors, Sam plans to join the New Zealand Defence Force after finishing school.
