We’ve all been spending more time in our local neighbourhoods this year. It really brings home what a big impact your stomping ground can have on your quality of life. Having everything within reach, friendly neighbours and beautiful outdoor spaces all help to make a place that just feels good to be in. Roskill already ticks a lot of these boxes, but with major investments underway in local streets, parks, walkways and public spaces, it’s set to get even better.

“I love all the parks and our beautiful awa”
Roskill is spoilt for choice when it comes to shared green spaces. The neighbourhoods that make up the wider Roskill area boast an abundance of popular parks and playgrounds, walkways and cycleways. Locals also love the natural features of the area, such as the two maunga, and the recently-restored Oakley Creek, known locally as the ‘the awa’. All this makes for a place where it’s easy to connect with nature.
