Halswell Community Market Update
It has been a wonderful experience and eventful 10 years since the Halswell Community Market began in the grounds of St Lukes Church before moving to St John of God. We have enjoyed immensely working together with SJOG to bring the community together for the monthly markets over the years.
Sadly COVID intervened and it was put on hold after managing just one market in May 2021.
Whilst we know many would like to see the return of the market now that things have settled down, both SJOG and ourselves have decided it was time to cease operating and base the baton onto someone else.
We will continue to run events and support/promote other groups in the community while managing the Halswell Community Hub.
Ngā mihi mahana, warm regards
