Living with Tourettes NZ

Sonia from Whakatane District

Hi Everyone,
Living with Tourettes NZ. is on Prime, Sunday at 8.30pm for another 5 weeks.
It gives a great insight into the lives of people in New Zealand living with Tourettes Syndrome.
Tourettes is a debilitating syndrome that is not recognized as a disability here and very much misunderstood.
My daughter Jessica is one of the 6 people that were followed and is hoping this will bring a better understanding to the wider community of the daily challengers faced by people with Tourettes Syndrome.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
