Get involved in planning the future of your city
How we'll protect cultural sites and historic heritage buildings is part of our district plan review.
We're now holding the first public engagement on the review. This is your chance to learn more and have your say on critical issues like how we'll house a growing population, manage natural hazards and sea level rise, protect indigenous biodiversity and a whole lot more.
We've got public open days, together with the 10 Year Plan team, tomorrow at the Walter Nash Centre, Taita and Petone Library, both at 6-8pm. This is your chance to learn more about the review and ask questions.
For more information, details on upcoming open days and how to have your say, go to the link below.
International Volunteer Managers Day
Yesterday marked International Volunteer Managers Day. So throughout this week we will be spotlighting several amazing volunteer managers from across the Wellington region.
Liv has recently started managing a diverse team of volunteers at The Free Store Wellington. Here are some words about what she loves about her role!

Celebrating International Volunteer Managers Day
We had a wonderful morning celebrating Te Whanganui-a-Tara volunteer managers at our International Volunteer Managers Day breakfast event.
It was inspiring to bring together local change-makers to discuss this year's theme: 'what's our future normal?' We shared reflections and aspirations for how we can play a role in shaping a stronger and brighter future for the voluntary sector.
Thank you so much to our generous sponsors Lighthouse Cinema, t leaf T, The Candle Shop, Wonderland Chocolate, Zealandia and Oat Cafe.
