Poll: Do you believe more youth workers are needed in Otara?

Caryn Wilkinson Reporter from Community News

More youth workers are needed in Otara to stop young people getting "sucked into" gangs, said Manukau Ward councillor Efeso Collins.

His comments follow a spate of shootings in Otara in South Auckland.

A house was shot at in the third incident of its kind in Auckland on Saturday.

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.
