The Nelson Tasman Disability Providers Forum is an quarterly meeting with an overarching purpose of strengthening the sector to improve outcomes for the community.
This event is intended for providers, organisations and groups that support individuals and their families with disabilities.
Following feedback from our last meeting we will create a range of opportunities for sector networking along with presentations from Fire and Emergency NZ, The Buzz and the local Needs Assessment Service Coordination (NASC) team. More details on presentation content to come closer to the date.
Come play with us at Compost Club!
COME LEARN HOW WE PROCESS OVER 800 LITRES OF FOOD SCRAPS COLLECTED FROM NELSON BUSINESSES AND RESIDENTS!
Compost Club has volunteer opportunities available for their Saturday 10am-noon compost workshop at the Waimarama Community Gardens! Including new opportunities to participate in the organic, volunteer-led Food Farm, & the exciting Worm Farm!
We are all volunteers, doing our bit to minimise food waste to landfill, create quality living compost to replenish soil systems, participate in circular economies, build community resilience, and HAVE FUN!
All are welcome! We invite families, kids of all ages, seniors, students, people with disabilities, and everyone in between. Come and get your hands dirty building and turning compost, gardening in our food farm, or playing with the worm farm! Free workout included! No experience required, as you will be learning from the best!
