Wellington Citizens Advice Bureau under threat.

The Team from CAB Wellington

We normally help you. Today we need your help.

Our Council funding is at risk. Council staff have rejected our application for continued 3-year funding and have recommended a one-off grant for 6 months during which time they want us to completely redefine our services. This combined with the Council signalling the loss of our CAB premises means our very existence in Wellington is threatened.
There is still time to change Wellington councils mind. Lobby the council by signing our petition.

If you are willing to share your story of how we helped you, make contact your local bureau so we can arrange to have you interviewed.

If we are not there, where will the 31,000 people we helped last year go?

Happy Tuesday, neighbours, can you figure out what I am?

Riddler from The Neighbourly Riddler

I can be long, or I can be short.
I can be grown, and I can be bought.
I can be painted, or left bare.
I can be round, or square.
What am I?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Just for a little bit of fun, we'd love to know whether Kiwis believe in ghosts. What goes on in our communities that we don't know about!

Perhaps you've seen a ghost or lived in a haunted home in New Zealand. We'd love to know, so vote in our poll and share your experiences in the comments below.
