Listening to our award winners speak at our National Excellence Awards in November, we were inspired by our young people and how they are open to new opportunities since going through our programmes.

Kaden developed a 'give-it-ago' attitude during his Wilderness Adventure when one of his friends introduced him to Chess. Having never played before, Kaden kept practicing with his new friend, decided to enter a tournament for fun and ended up winning! An awesome accomplishment.

Monday 12 December
6pm Ellen Melville Centre

What a year - some endings and quite a few new beginnings - certainly in the city centre.

Throughout all this city centre residents remain - resilient, and optimistic.

And CCRG have continued to raise a voice for residents, to a wide range of groups, across an even wider range of interests and matters that can impact us.

Come along going us for our last meeting for 2023:

Sindy Xian from the Census team will update on Census 2023.

Andrew Carline, who is wanting to get a permanent market set up around Queens Wharf or similar waterfront location.

A kōrero around city centre priorities for the coming year.
To assist with this, we've invited:
Auckland Central MP Chlöe Swarbrick
Waitematā Ward Councillor Mike Lee
Waitematā Local Board members
to provide an overview of their key issues or focus areas.


The discussions will then be quite informal and we can share some Christmas kai to wind up a very busy year.

A report has shown that clinics around New Zealand are understaffed, with GP's being overworked and underpaid. And for everyday kiwis, healthcare and emergency healthcare is simply not accessible.

The General Practice Owners Association of Aotearoa's report titled ‘‘On The Brink’’ outlines the urgent need to address pay parity for GP nurses and doctors, beef up workforce numbers and improve funding allocations for practices with the hopes that this makes heatlhcare more accessible in the community.

Are you noticing delays in getting GP appointments or long waits at after-hours care?
