While ignoring some of the worst ‘slumlords’ in the country, most of the landlords in New Zealand do aim to provide safe, healthy homes to tenants; however, we are at a cross roads.

Does your loved one ride a motorcycle?

The Team from ACC New Zealand

Riding a motorcycle or scooter inevitably carries more risk than driving a four-wheeled vehicle. And it turns out quite a lot of us have someone close to us who rides (in fact, 48% of Neighbourly members!)

Riding a motorcycle or scooter inevitably carries more risk than driving a four-wheeled vehicle. And it turns out quite a lot of us have someone close to us who rides (in fact, 48% of Neighbourly members!)

If you worry about their safety, there is something you can do: encourage them to take Ride Forever coaching, provided (and heavily subsidised) by ACC. It's delivered by experts and it works, as Simon Gotlieb's story shows. Neighbourly members can book a FREE Ride Forever course before 31 March using promo code NEIGH18 over here.

Hi All,

While the storm has been downgraded, it still could cause problems around the city, and especially low lying coastal areas. It is significant that all flights in and out of Wellington Airport have been cancelled between 3.30pm and midnight.

If you are encountering issues, which Council can assist in resolving, please don't hesitate to ring Council's Helpline on 4994444.

Additionally there is The Fix It Phone Application, which can also be used to report problems.

High tide is at 9.40pm tonight, which combined with a gusty southerly wind change could be the most vulnerable time.

Please keep yourselves safe, and look after your neighbours.
