What do you think of new clamping rules for Christchurch?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Hi neighbours, plans to introduce a maximum wheel clamp removal fee of $100 have been announced. This comes after complaints against "predatory" clampers but an AA spokesman said the $100 fine was disproportionate for many parking offences. What do you think?

Hi neighbours, plans to introduce a maximum wheel clamp removal fee of $100 have been announced. This comes after complaints against "predatory" clampers but an AA spokesman said the $100 fine was disproportionate for many parking offences. What do you think?

Under the proposed legislation, police will be given the power to fine individual clampers up to $1000 and a company up to $5000 for breaking the rules. These fines increased to $3000 and $15,000 respectively if the matter ended up in court. Read the full story here.

Hi neighbours – Loud Shirt Day is coming up in September and it's time to use your power of LOUD for GOOD.

Izabella was born profoundly deaf and in the four years following her diagnosis, her parents' emotions of shock, being scared and overwhelmed have turned to amazement, surprise and hope - all thanks to Izabella's progress as a hearing and speaking child.

Izabella loves to sing and dance, she enjoys gymnastics, bike rides and playing with her older brothers. What are her superpowers I hear you ask? She's fierce, adventurous and caring!

Register to fundraise and help deaf children like Izabella listen and speak. You can also donate here on Givealittle. Thanks for your support!

Hi Neighbours,

Can you taste a difference between budget and premium milk? There are few things that divide the public as much as the budget versus branded milk debate.

In Stuff's new 'Milking It' investigation, we look at the difference between branded milks, the current milk prices in New Zealand, as well as the comeback of glass milk bottles.

So, what are your thoughts on our country's milk? Take part in our poll, and feel free to share your thoughts in the replies!

Hi all!

Hope this isn't against the rules but I'm looking for your help!

This Friday we are hosting a great Shave for a Cure Twilight Gala at Phillipstown Hub, 39 Nursery Rd. You can learn more here: www.neighbourly.co.nz... but rest assured there will be great food (sausages, woodfired pizza and a huge bake sale with GF options available) and lots of fun with all proceeds benefitting Leukemia and Blood Cancer NZ.

We are looking for last-minute donations for our raffle from local businesses or craftspeople. We've already had great support from FORGE fashion, Slick Burgers, Vivace Espresso and other amazingly generous people and businesses.

We're also looking for anyone who might like to help in the entertainment on Friday. Between 3 and 7 we'd love to show people an excellent time and if you or your group have a special talent (family-friendly!) to share for part of that time, we'd love to hear from you :)

Lastly, you can support our fundraiser online! My fundraising page is here: bit.ly... Every little bit helps!

Thanks for reading <3
