Pakuranga & Howick Community Networking Meeting
Manukau East Council of Social Services (MECOSS), facilitates two networking forums; the Pakuranga & Howick Community Networking Meeting and the Botany & Flat Bush & Ormiston Community Networking Meeting.
Our meetings take place eleven times a year enabling community organisations, social service providers, government agencies and the general public a platform for connecting and networking with each other.
Through the sharing of information about each other’s activities, our networking meetings provide an opportunity for attendees to engage in forming effective and collaborative working relationships.
The next Pakuranga & Howick Community Networking meeting will be held at Te Tuhi on Tuesday 4 May at 1.30pm. Speaking spots available.
