Hi Guys,

We are a Not for profit organisation involved in health & welfare of the community. At present we conduct bollyworx (exercise to bollywood music) every Saturday at the New Lynn Community Centre for one hour from 9 am to 10 am. Since this is a community based program, the participants pay what they can afford. New Lynn Community Centre will be undergoing a major renovation/maintenance starting September and ending sometime in March 2021.

We are looking for a venue during that time. If the venue suits the participants, we might book it permanently.


Can anyone in the neighbourly help us out???

Thanks & regards

Baptist
