Kia ora koutou,
We hope you are all keeping safe in your bubbles, and managing to hang in there for just a little while longer!
While we still don't know exactly how long it will be until we return to Level 2, we will continue collecting happenings and information for the month of October to share with our community.
If you have any community-related events, projects or info for the month of October that you would like to share, please complete our form online or send us an email here.
Please keep us informed of any changes to your events, e.g. if they are moving to be online, or postponed to a later date.
We are happy to share any postponement or cancellation notices, too.
Ngā mihi,
The Devonport Peninsula Trust rōpū/team.
