Upcoming Grey Power Upper Hutt Social Meetings

Dean & Jacqui from Birchville

Grey Power Upper Hutt (“GPUH”) is currently engaging with Upper Hutt City Council, ensuring the voice of older persons in the Upper Hutt community is being heard. GPUH’s Local Government Grey Power sub-Committee, is actively working with Upper Hutt Senior Net hoping to establish an Older Persons network in the Upper Hutt Community.
Due to GPUH’s local engagement with UHCC we have been asked to organise a meeting of Older Persons to discuss and give comment on the UHCC Annual Plan 2025/2026. The Meeting will be held on Wednesday April 2, 1.30pm at the Upper Hutt Baptist Church. Afternoon Tea will be provided.
Our April Social Meeting (16 April at 1.30pm) has as Guest Speaker, David Galt, Managing Director, Mowbray Collectables. He will discuss and show guests, several interesting coins, stamps, banknotes and medals in a PowerPoint presentation. David will also be able to demonstrate how members can move unwanted items on and how you can have the items valued.

I also wish to advise all current GPUH Financial Members, that our ANNUAL General Meeting will be held Wednesday 21 May 2025 at 1.30pm at our new meeting venue, Upper Hutt Baptist Church corner of Fergusson Drive and Milton Street.

We're taking the bus!

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The number of Wellingtonians taking the bus and train rose by 3% last week compared to the same time last year, according to Metlink.

Not surprising given petrol prices at the moment. But if you're considering giving up your car commute for a leisurely bus ride in the mornings, it would be worth it.

It's about to get even easier: In April, e-pay will be launched, meaning you can tap on with your credit cards as well as smart devices.

It's better on the environment too: With most Metlink trains running on electricity, 25% of the bus fleet being EV’s and the Ika Rere electric ferry, Metlink is able to move more people using less fuel than any other transport option.

With fuel costs so high, it's a good idea to jump on board if you can. If you've become a public transport convert recently, how have you found it?
