We’ve been a cornerstone of the community since 2011.
Operating as a hub since 2005, our mission remains to provide a safe, welcoming resource centre that helps our community thrive.
Our dedicated team and trust board work tirelessly to offer vital services and programs, including the soon-to-open Te Whare Awhi at Fraser Street Reserve and the recently inaugurated Te Whare Toi o Hakanoa at Hakanoa Domain.
Join us on our journey to foster connection, creativity, and well-being within our vibrant community.
