Seniors Workshop on tomorrow in Greytown - register now!
South Wairarapa District Council invites you to a workshop session to share your priorities for inclusion in the Long Term Plan and Spatial Plan for our district. This particular session focuses on what is needed for the wellbeing of our aging population (over 65’s). We’d like to hear from people in that age bracket and those working in the care/service sector.
All insights gained during this engagement phase helps us shape what we formally consult on in March/April next year. This is your chance to get in early with your ideas.
To register and receive details please RSVP to ltp@swdc.govt.nz by 5.00pm on Tuesday, 12 October.
If you can’t come to the workshop and can spare 5-10 minutes – we’d be grateful if you could complete our online survey aimed at people who live, work in and/or visit South Wairarapa:
