Each month, Nelson Weekly publishes a 'Local Legend' feature sponsored by Nelson Auto Glass Specialists. A recipient is nominated by a member of the public and will receive a bunch of flowers and a $50 Pressy card - with a photo in the paper and a short article about the work that they do, and why they love it. All we need is their name, contact number, and a sentence or two about why you are nominating the person. The recipient needs to be nominated for something they have done in a voluntary capacity, be happy to share their story with the TSM team and have a photo taken with the sponsor. No matter how big or small the role, TSM would like to acknowledge the amazing people who live in our region and help make the world a better place. Please contact [email protected] for more information. Here is a link to the latest feature on pg. 16:https://nelsonapp.co.nz/editions/7dd48445-e5ef-479a-953d-37501facbaee

Community-led approaches offer great freedom as there is no strict formula for how things should be done. While there are numerous possible starting points, some key skills and tools can empower you to kickstart your community-led initiatives.
In this 2.5 hour workshop, we will design powerful questions that unlock potential and explore effective community engagement strategies. You’ll be inspired to frame questions through a strengths-based lens, explore the art of stakeholder mapping, and discover innovative approaches to community involvement.
By the end of the workshop, you’ll have:
A fresh perspective on framing questions to harness strengths
A practical stakeholder mapping process
New ideas for community engagement strategies and how to activate these insights
Throughout the session you will have the opportunity to connect with others from across Aotearoa, and learn from the experiences of other communities that are beginning their community-led journey.
