Love Where You Live - February 1st to 29th š„°
Love is in the air this month! Weāre not just talking about Valentineās Day... weāre talking about this monthās national campaign.
Our theme for February is all about finding ways to show your home and community a little extra love and care. Whether itās organising a street clean up, helping a neighbour tidy up their property, putting together a working bee, or installing a communal pÄtaka or library - there are countless ways to make our neighbourhoods more enjoyable for everyone.
Donāt forget to share the love! Let us know how youāre improving your neighbourhood this month by email or tag us online and include the following hashtag:

Wellingtonās identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. Weāve seen the headlines about recent closures, and itās a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
