Hi neighbours

Nadine from Stuff

I'm Nadine, a reporter for Stuff and I'm wanting to do a story about the reality of the festive season for some people.

I'm wanting to talk to an older pensioner who will likely be alone at Christmas and finds it hard to get by on the pension.

Is this you? I'd love to talk to you if possible. I'd need to visit prior to Christmas and on Christmas Day, if possible.

You can email me at nadine.roberts@stuff.co.nz or leave a comment below and I can get in touch.

Thanks for reading!

Poll: Should we be giving the green light to new mining projects? 💰🌲

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Environmental Protection Authority announced this week that a proposed mine in Central Otago (near Cromwell) is about to enter its fast-track assessment process. A final decision could come within six months, and if it’s approved, construction might start as early as mid-2026.

We want to know: Should mining projects like this move ahead?

Keen to dig deeper? Mike White has the scoop.
