Let's Connect for Neighbours Aotearoa 2025

Ghizlane from New Plymouth

Kia Ora, I’m Reez, your local Taranaki Champ for Neighbours Aotearoa 2025.
What’s Neighbours you ask? Neighbours Aotearoa is a nationwide community-led initiative asking everyone to get to know their neighbours a little better over the month of March - and the rest of the year!
What can you do to get involved? Planning an event for your neighbourhood! Do you love a BBQ? A street party? What about a community garden or little library in front of your house? If those sorts of things aren’t your jam, we can help with loads of low cost to no cost ideas. Starting a street wide facebook page to keep up to date to things happening around your neighbourhood, or sharing tools, skills, or items you are looking to exchange or give away. The ideas are endless (even offering to help bring your neighbours bin in or mow their lawn once in a while), it’s all about fostering a lasting connection, and feeling happier and safer in your neighbourhoods.

We would love if people would submit their ideas on how they will engage with their neighbours (no matter how big or small the interaction is) via the Neighbours Aotearoa website - so we can see all of the awesome ways people are connecting, and share those ideas in following years. It also helps us to keep the movement going in terms of future funding for the project.
Please reach out to me if you have any questions, or want help making an idea come to fruition. We have plenty of resources to help you get your idea off the ground!
Submit your idea here: neighboursaotearoa.nz...
