Keep Liston Village
Do not tear down people's homes for very little gain. The park is big enough as it is. Do not waste our money.

Fruit trees in reserves and parks please
It would be nice to see fruit trees planted in our local reserves and parks such as the ones planted at Watea reserve in Sandringham. These create a really amazing atmosphere where people discuss and often take a level of responsibility to help look after them. Fejoias and citrus are great but it would be amazing to see some of this expanded. Engage with locals when doing this often lots of us are happy to help mulch and care for them. Sometimes a little knowledge is needed thats all. This will help protect food security and also teaches us all a little about sustainability. Many parks have options for this. Yet in this neighborhood I feel like I never see them.

Volunteering in a new "Normal" needs support
COVID-19 has changed the volunteering landscape. The likely scenario for NGOs reliant on volunteers will be a short fall of people unable to volunteer as in pre-COVID days. With seniors [over 65yrs] being the back bone of many of our volunteer activities in the community now unable [unwilling through health fears?] to undertake their usual roles, this will leave a big gap in the ability of NGOs to deliver services at pre-COVID levels. An increasing number of people will also be subsisting on a much reduced income will be accessing community services in larger numbers and the community groups stepping up to support them will need additional people to support the delivery of those needs – these are generally volunteers. The increasing numbers of unemployed people will also be looking to contribute, retrain and wanting to ensure their own good mental health will need support in sourcing community voluntary activities that will best meet their needs. We need to support our community organisations to relook at their volunteer involving programmes and practices, how they recruit, support, identify and allocate voluntary tasks, ensuring the health and wellbeing of both the recipients and the volunteers. Volunteering Auckland is well placed to support the volunteering needs of both the person looking to contribute and those community groups needing support in their volunteer engagement processes and practices. Our database can also track referrals to needs by suburb and by local board. We are able to operate regionally and virtually. Volunteering will increasingly become a way to ensure a resilient community.
