Poll: Have you ever been bullied?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

People associate bullying with children in schools, but it can actually stretch beyond childhood to workplaces or neighbourhoods.

This Friday is Pink Shirt Day, which began in Canada in 2007 when two students took a stand against homophobic bullying after a new student was harassed for wearing pink. People across the globe are now encouraged to wear pink on this day to take a stand against bullying and promote inclusivity.

Books wanted

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Does anyone have any Alexandre Dumas books they don’t want anymore?
I absolutely love the stories but have only experienced them on screen. Especially The Three Musketeers. I’ve just binge watched the latest series for the second time in 2 months.

Missing cat

Horiana from Raureka

Hi neighbors, if anyone has seen a ginger cat around the Raureka area -specifically Maraekakaho road, Gordon, Oliphant or Wall road could you please give me a message. His name is Tweety and he’s mainly an inside cat so he never wonders off for too long. He’s been missing since yesterday morning and I’m praying he comes home soon.
