Awareness Week 20th-26th March 2023

The team from

It’s CAB Awareness Week (20-26 March) and we are celebrating diversity and multiculturalism.
One aspect of this is making sure that language is not a barrier to getting the information and advice
you need. Citizens Advice Bureau can help you in your language, whether this is Hindi, French,

Mandarin, Bahasa, Yoruba, Punjabi, Samoan, Tagalog or something else.
Call us on 0800 367 222 or visit your local CAB and let us know what language speaker you require.
We will connect you up with one of our multi-lingual CAB volunteers or access a trained interpreter
to ensure you get the information and advice you need.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
