Supporting Local - Mt Vic & Beyond!
With some new subscribers to our weekly bulletin this week (thanks to our latest giveaway) we wanted to continue the Support Local love that brought these new readers over here! James and myself have many passions outside of helping Wellingtonians market and sell their properties. So, when we decided to team up and start AFP, we knew we wanted to use both our platform and combined skills to pour some love back into the community.
We all know the importance of supporting local businesses, now more than ever. So, we wanted to help facilitate that by providing weekly recommendations in the form of short videos as we explore as many local spots as possible. We also feel especially passionate about sharing some of that love directly with the community that we live in, Mount Victoria. What better way to do that than with monthly giveaways & activity pages on the back of Mt Vic’s monthly newsletter, The Local!?

The Local
As Mt Vic locals, we were keen to support our local newsletter The Local when it started publishing last year. Not only do we get to share valuable information on our local property market, but we have also been able to further support other local businesses through regular restaurant voucher giveaways and prezzy cards. We had great engagement from the community recently with a colouring in competition, and look forward to our continued involvement with our fellow Mt Victorians going forward.
Check out some of the incredible entries we received for our recent colouring in competition…
We Love Welly Weekly
What started as simply having our weekly team meeting at a local cafe quickly turned into a weekly series both on our social media pages and here on the Bulletin, coined We Love Welly. This series has been an awesome way to explore some of the incredible small businesses in our city, whether it’s a retail store, cafe, bar or restaurant. So, here are some of our favourites from this year so far…
