Mary Potter Hospice fundraising

Charlotte from Khandallah

I can't remember or locate the thread of the discussion but a few days ago I responded to a thread - possibly on Neighbourly or on one of the local Facebook pages that come up on my newsfeed - regarding solicitations for for regular donations for the hospice - either by collectors in the street or by door-knockers. I make a monthly donation to the hospice in recognition of the loving care my mother received there in 1990 - but became concerned that a fee to another entity might be being deducted from my now monthly automatic payment. I had a ring this afternoon from the Hospice to assure me that my money in full goes towards the operation of the hospice and no professional fees or other payments are made to anyone else. I was thanked for getting in touch - so anyone else who has concerns should contact the Hospice direct for clarification and reassurance. The Hospice offers a wonderful service to patients and their families and I am forever grateful to the loving care my mother received.

🌉🛶 Early Birds Might Crack This One First… or Not? 🥚🧠

The Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

A person is crossing a bridge and sees a boat full of people, yet there isn't a single person on board.
How is this possible?

🪱🐦 When are you the most productive? 🌙🦉

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post has been diving into our daily habits, and research suggests being an early bird or a night owl isn’t just a choice—it’s biology! We all have that specific time when our brains finally "click" into gear.

This raises a big question for the modern workplace. To get the best out of everyone, should employers accommodate our natural body clocks? This idea is at the heart of the four-day work week and flexible scheduling movements.

We want to hear from you:
1. When does your brain "click" into gear?
2. Would a flexible (or shortened) schedule change the way you work?
