Making the Jewel of the City shine
Members of the Youth Advisory Group will be out at different times of the day from this coming Monday 22 January until 29 January surveying people out and about on the Hatea Loop to find out what they think about it, what improvements they'd like to see and seeing just how many people are taking advantage of this great space.
