New year, means more families to help

Nicola from Stanmore Bay

Hi Neighbours!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and new year period. We are back in action from the 9th but unfortunately have a wait list of children needing help from the moment we go back to work and are desperately needing these items. If you could bring these to us when we open on the 9th OR if you get in touch with me, I can arrange for a collection otherwise you're more than welcome to drop off locally to me.

The items we are needing are as follows:
- Cots
- Prams
- Bassinets
- New born clothing
- Car seats (all stages and non expired)
- Size 2,3,4,5 and 6 clothing
- Bassinet bedding
- Blankets

When we walk into the factory, we have 34 applications from the moment we get going, 8 prams, 8 bassinets, and 9 car seats is what is included in these that we don't have.

Towards the end of last year we started to have completely empty shelves, this was a result of the need we were seeing so we are desperately needing a large supply of all things in order to fill the needs we will continue to see in 2023.

If you can help we would be forever grateful, otherwise if not and you are able to share this post we will again be forever grateful for that too!

Thank you.

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.
