We’ve all seen the headlines lately — New Zealand’s economy shrank more than expected between April and June (down 0.9%).

Now that the weekend’s over and things have calmed down a bit, the Neighbourly Team are keen to hear from you: how are you feeling about it all?
Summer’s coming, and holidays are on the horizon … should we be focusing on the future rather than the past quarter? Or is this dip in the road a real concern?

Mobility car parks are few and far between. And too many people, without the need of them, without permits, park in them “just for a minute”.
In Havelock North it seems to be improving. But…
Mobility scooters are just as much of a problem, parking in mobility car parks. Please don’t.
In HN, there are plenty of wide footpaths and accessible areas where you can park your mobility scooters, even under cover, including New World, but not many where I can park my 6.3m long, 2.5m wide, 2.9m high mobility permitted van. I don’t fit just anywhere.
I carry passengers who are visually impaired, blind, disabled, physically frail, suffering dementia and have other health, physical or cognitive difficulties. I can’t just park anywhere.
It’s easier for you to find parks for your scooter, than it is for me with my van.
You can even drive your mobility scooter into some businesses.
Please, Please, Please, don’t park mobility scooters in mobility car parks.

Many workplaces now embrace hybrid working — splitting time between home and the office. For years, people have built their routines and lifestyles around this flexibility.
But critics say it weakens team spirit, slows training, and makes collaboration harder.

But critics say it weakens team spirit, slows training, and makes collaboration harder.
💬 What do you think? Hybrid forever, or back to the office full-time?
