Lower Hutt Service Centre Reopening
Our Lower Hutt Work and Income Service Centre will reopen at 28 Dudley St (behind the AA Centre) on Monday, 5 May 2025 at 10.30am. It is a new space to collaborate with employers, providers and community groups and to meet more jobseekers one-on-one.
Thank you Hutt Valley, for your patience while we re-located due to the Riverlink Project.
The 4m-high x 22m-wide mural on the front of our building was created by artist Askew One in 2020 and can now be enjoyed by the community.

Further important update to all Neighbourly members
Dear Neighbours,
We wanted to update you with what we have uncovered in regards to the potential Neighbourly data breach which we were alerted to on Thursday January 1.
Over the past few days we have worked to understand whether our members’ data had been accessed without authorisation and, if so, the extent of the breach.
We have now confirmed that there was a breach of some data from our registered users. We are now satisfied that the breach was quickly contained, and we have restored the Neighbourly site and services.
Our investigations have shown that there was unauthorised access of Neighbourly data, which included our registered members’ names, email addresses, GPS coordinates, forum posts and member communications. It did not include passwords but some publicly advertised event and business addresses were included.
Following best practice, we will look to seek a court injunction against any use of the material.
We want to apologise to our members for this occurrence and any concerns it may have caused you over the past few days. We have, of course, addressed the issue that allowed the theft to occur, and we are satisfied that the site is secure for use by all of our members. We will work closely with all our staff to ensure we have the most robust processes in place to prevent it from happening again.
Thank you to our members who contacted us over this period and for the understanding you have shown as we work through the complex issues associated with cyber theft.
