The Neighbourly team recognises the value of the site for assessing community need and for this reason, we have a number of features perfect for election purposes.

Any campaigning should take place away from the general noticeboard. We've got a few options to help ensure your message is getting out to Neighbourly members. We'd suggest starting your own group on Neighbourly - this is a great way to connect with those who want to get updates about your candidacy.

We also have business profiles available for all candidates if you would like your messages to appear on the Neighbourly noticeboard. As well as this, we have special Neighbourly Advertising rates for election candidates. Get in touch with us to find out more.

Already an elected official? Neighbourly also offers all elected officials the option of creating an organisation profile to connect with those in their electorate - although these profiles should not be used for campaigning.

If you have any questions or need any assistance then let us know!

We are holding a Stream Care Community Science Hui - come along and listen to our student presenters share their knowledge gathered over the past two years. You can help us create community aspirational goals for our local awa.
Each term the schools (Birkdale Intermediate, Verran Primary, Windy Ridge School and Birkenhead Primary) undertake a stream survey in which water quality and biology of the stream is measured. Fish traps are set the night before for the children to record, count, measure and release and macroinvertebrate monitoring is undertaken so the children can observe the insects, snails and crustacea that inhabit their local stream. Water quality is measured using Auckland Council provided Wai Care stream kits. All of this information is used to make an assessment of the quality of the stream. All data is entered into the Council Wai Care database and New Zealand FreshwaterFish Database.
