Seeking new members

Toni Ferris from Palmerston North Community Patrol

Hi everyone. We are currently seeking new members for Palmerston North Community Patrol. It is a voluntary role and all we ask is 4 hours of your time once a month. If you are aspiring towards a career with NZ Police we are a great stepping stone towards that goal. With all the happenings around the city the police can't be everywhere at the same time so we get out there to act as their 'extra eyes and ears' and to also help deter criminal behaviour. You need to be 18yrs or older, have at least a restricted license and pass Police vetting. We also have some mandatory training that needs to be completed but we help you out with that. If you would like more information please email palmerstonnorth@cpnz.org.nz or visit cpnz.org.nz or pncp.org.nz.

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.
