Poll: Is a smoke-free city a better place to live?

Matt Tso Reporter from The Hutt News

Large swathes of Lower Hutt are now smoke-free following a vote by councillors.

Smoke-free areas now include shopping centres, bus stops, train stations, parks, sports grounds, beaches and outdoor pavement dining areas.

Does the smoke-free policy make Lower Hutt a better place to live?

Share your New Zealand music memories...

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

It's NZ Music Month and New Zealand really has some beautiful songs from artists that we call our own.

Whether it's April Sun in Cuba, Don't Forget your Roots, or How Bizarre or Bic Runga's 'Sway' - songs have a way of unlocking memories and evoking old feelings.

In honour of NZ Music Month, share a New Zealand song or artist that is special to you and explain why.
