Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Have you or your whānau ever experienced bullying? Share your thoughts on Pink Shirt Day below.

Benefits of double glazing

Chris Soutar from Soutar-able Glass

With the cost of living going up and jack frost nipping at the door as the mornings and night get chilly ,you find yourself spending more on power bills.
With double glazing your home becomes warmer and heats up more quickly reducing the amount of money spent on heating.

Also you have a dryer home no more weepy windows which is healthier and removes the possible damage from wet window sills.

If you live in a noisy environment then double glazing is perfect for as it acts as a sound barrier dramatically eliminating sound.

Plus double glazing is and extra layer of security as it is harder to break through than a single pane of glass

Double glazing your home has many benefits and is a long term investment
