Can you spare an hour or two in support of Mary Potter Hospice?

Mary Potter Hospice

We need volunteers for our Annual Street Appeal Collection on Friday 17 and Saturday 18 May 2019 to help collect funds throughout Wellington, Porirua and Kāpiti for Mary Potter Hospice – your local hospice.

2019 is a special year for us as 40 years ago, Mary Potter Hospice was gifted to the people of the Wellington region to be run as a community hospice. We’re so excited to celebrate this milestone and it’s thanks to volunteers like you that we are able to continue to provide our services free of charge.

You can volunteer from one hour through to both days in an area convenient to you, and we’ll provide you with guidelines and collection equipment. Thank you so much for your support!

Poll: If we want to reduce speeding, what do you think actually changes driver behaviour? 🛻🚨🚓

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In the Post's article on speeding penalties, the question is asked whether speeding fines are truly about road safety, or are they just a way to boost revenue for the Crown?

What do you think? Should speeding motorists receive speeding fines or demerit points?

Poll: Divisive polls - should they be promoted here ?

Andrew from Miramar

Neighbourly encourages divisive opinion polls on pointless arguments constantly to get comments for the papers, should we put up with them trolling users this way ?

Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.

We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️

We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?

Keen to read more about "coffee math"? The Post has you covered.
