Further to my previous post on being Homeless in Kapiti
Further to my previous posts on being Homeless in Kapiti a core group has been set up to discuss and work with what and how we can achieve this dilemma and having its voice heard. I had asked that others share their stories and experiences so a Facebook group has been started for these to be shared on. First you will need to request to join the group and answer three questions before admin will accept you in. This is done to keep the members safe and have their privacy kept. Once in the group it is asked that you read the Mission Statement, Privacy and Guidelines before any posts are made. There is the option of making an anonymous post to share your story or to post and admin will review it before accepting it. That is to keep out any abusive, nasty, bullying posts and comments. Members and posts cannot be seen by non-members to protect your privacy. If you are interested in pulling together with other interested Kapiti people to house and reduce the homeless numbers please feel free to join at the following link. If you have any questions before committing to joining please feel free to ask in the comments

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
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.

Some Choice News!
Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
