Thank you for using Neighbourly
Hi All!
We have just moved and are pretty much incompetent in the way of home stuff.
We need a handyman to mount a dryer on the wall, install a vent on the dryer and replace some hoses on our washing machine and maybe restring a washing line! Flick me a message if this is you!
Thanks!
Just a reminder, parking fees now apply on weekends in the city. For an area map of the fees click here.

Kiwis love our lawns and traditionally we expect our councils to keep the lawns of our public parks and verges tidy and well mowed and to get rid of any weeds.

But actually a neat and tidy green lawn is a food desert for pollinators, and leaving grass unmown and letting so-called weeds like clover and dandelion flower provides food for bees and helps support biodiversity. Would you be happy if your local authority let the grass in your local parks grow long and allowed weeds to flourish?

The Churton Park Community Association, in conjunction with local list MP Brett Hudson, has arranged a meeting where you can come and tell Greater Wellington Regional Councillors and their transport staff what you believe can be done to improve the situation. The Association sees this as a great opportunity to provide sensible and practical solutions to what have been very frustrating issues around the introduction of new timetables, routes, hubbing and so forth.
The meeting is scheduled for
Thursday 13 September 2018
