Looking for land / hall / space to lease
After 6 amazing years of renting the Huntleigh Girlguiding Centre, Crofton Downs, for our holiday programmes and Nature School we are on the hunt for a NEW and equally amazing locations for Everyone Out. We want to continue to run our programmes on the West / North side of Wellington City, probably somewhere between Karori and Johnsonville, so it won't be too far for our current families to travel to. This will also compliment our south coast location in Island Bay.
The location would need to be available to rent / lease during the school holidays and at least 2 school days each week during the term.
We are open to different options and would love the opportunity to develop a site. As our programmes are mostly outdoors we don't really need a hall but we do need shelter and somewhere dry to store our gear. As a minimum we need access to water and a toilet, an existing structure for shelter or permission to construct a structure and a storage shed. Grounds that have mixed terrain, some open flat grass, bush, some mature trees, would be great - a stream would be a bonus. If the area of land is small it must border a park or bush that can be freely accessed. The location must be accessible for vehicles not a long rough 4WD track.
So if you know any locations that you think would be perfect please let us know. We are willing to consider all options and an out of the box solution might just be perfect!!!!!!

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Poll: Are you still heading to your local for your caffeine fix, or has the $$ changed your habits? ☕
Wellington’s identity is built on its cafe culture, but with costs climbing, that culture is under pressure. We’ve seen the headlines about recent closures, and it’s a tough pill to swallow along with a $6+ coffee.
We all want our favourite spots to stay open, but we also have to balance our own budgets ⚖️
We want to know: How are you handling the "coffee math" in 2026? Are you still heading to your local for a chat and a caffeine fix, or has the cost of living changed your habits?
