One example is kicking our plastic habit! What are alternatives to using plastic? How can we make good ethical choices? How can we reduce our consumption?
Join Transition Town Lower Hutt to discuss the problem of being individuals, or small locally organized groups, trying to bring about change in the face of the scale and momentum of massive political and economic enterprises. Is all our effort just futile perhaps, or at best just helpful to a few? Is the magnitude of the problems overwhelming? All Welcome.

Community Emergency Hubs are places to gather and support each other during and after a disaster like an earthquake. They are opened and run entirely by the community, using their local knowledge, skills and resources to tackle the immediate challenges presented by a disaster.

Te Horo shows us how their Community Emergency Hub has been a great place to get to know your neighbour for a great purpose, to prepare their Hub and know what to do during and after a disaster.
