It's local elections year - meet your Nelson City Council candidates! A special event for our migrant and former refugee communities.

Join our online workshop to learn practical strategies for non-profits to thrive in uncertain times, held over two dates: 11 and 18 Sept, 6-8pm. Tickets: $39 ex GST via Humanitix. Book your spot today.

Every year, these Awards honour people who are making an extraordinary difference – from the unseen heroes working quietly in the background, to those leading bold initiatives in their communities. Whether it’s a Local Hero, Senior New Zealander, Young New Zealander, or one of our other award categories, we want to hear their stories. In the past, we’ve seen regional volunteer communities get behind these Awards – and many of those individuals have gone on to be recognised nationally.

We warmly invite you to a gathering of like-minded women to share our story and find out how you can support an initiative that is making a real difference in the lives of women in our Nelson Tasman region. The event will be held on 9 September from 5.30pm at The Boathouse, Nelson

Several key speakers have been invited to explain more about the poll, or referendum that is coming up in our local elections, and gain an insight into the role, benefits and myths around the Māori Ward Councillor role.
