Know your neighbours

Hamish Knight from Kilbirnie Community Policing Centre

Police are noticing a group of offenders operating within Wellington city. These offenders are tailgating residents into their buildings that have some form of controlled access, and then go on to commit crime once inside.

To prevent you, or your neighbours, becoming victims of crime please do the following:

- Ensure doors are closed behind you once you have entered.
- Question an unknown person’s authority for entry i.e. ask them to show their access/swipe card for the building.
- Clear letter boxes
- Arrange for a secure area for Courier packages to be dropped off

Police encourage residents to call us right away if they notice any suspicious people hanging around their properties.

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.
