Reach Out * Look Out * Help Out

Maree Dunlop from Top of the South Neighbourhood Support

3 WAYS TO CONNECT WITH YOUR NEIGHBOURS…

• Reach Out - Wave, say ‘Kia Ora!’ or introduce yourself. Welcome new residents to your street when they move in.
• Look Out Help keep your community safe by looking out for your neighbours. If something doesn’t look right let them know or get help if needed.
• Help Out Share any surplus from your garden or fruit trees. Offer to take the rubbish out for someone who needs a hand. Take time to have a chat with someone who lives alone.

There are many ways you can make a difference in your community!

Neighbours that know each other are more likely to offer assistance, accept and ask for help when they need it.

Let’s build a stronger Aotearoa by staying more connected.

🌟 We are now recruiting volunteers at Citizens Advice Bureau Nelson Tasman! 🌟

Lenka Caslavska from Citizens Advice Bureau Nelson Tasman

If you are curious about volunteering with us, we would love to hear from you! Training includes supported learning and time alongside an experienced mentor.
“I was surprised by the professionalism of the training. I learned so much about our community, and the support from my mentor helped me find my feet.”
– CAB volunteer
As a CAB volunteer, no two days are the same. One moment you might be helping someone understand their rights after buying something, another you might simply be listening while someone works through a tricky situation. We do not tell people what to do – we help them understand their options and find what works best for them.
While our website is available anytime, many people really value talking with someone face to face. That is why our local offices matter so much.
📍 Our current opening times:
• Richmond (main office), 9a Cambridge Street: Monday to Thursday, 9am-4.30pm
• Nelson: Mondays and Fridays, 9am-4.30pm, sharing space with Age Concern, 18 Bridge Street
• Motueka: Thursdays, 9.30am–1pm at the Motueka Library (reopening soon!)
To offer this free service to everyone in our community, we rely on well-trained volunteers.
To receive an information pack please contact us on:

Training begins in March 💛
