Botany & Flat Bush & Ormiston Community Networking Meeting
Manukau East Council of Social Services (MECOSS), facilitates both the Botany & Flat Bush & Ormiston Community Networking Meetings and the Pakuranga & Howick Community Networking Meetings.
These meetings provide a platform for community stakeholders, government departments, non-government organisations, not-for profit community groups and the public to make solid connections, learn from each other, and to share and discuss ideas.
It’s also a forum for community and organisations to voice their opinion and/or raise concerns about what they feel needs addressing.
In turn, MECOSS may act as an advocate for change through Community Networks Aotearoa (CNA); a national organisation, which has strong links to government.
