Our team is at the Loft (upstairs in Eastgate Mall) every Tuesday, from 11- 2pm, to help you. If you have an issue and you need help, just pop on in, you don't need an appointment. They will usually be sat in the Library next to our big yellow flag.
The Loft also gives access to a wide range of Health and Social services. Organisations such as Community Law and Kingdom Resources are there at different times during the week. Check under the 'Read More' for a link to give you more information about times and whether you need an appointment.
There is also a range of services available from Aranui Community Trust (ACTIS). From the Mower Shed to Indoor Bowls to Counselling services. Check out their website and link to their Facebook page.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

2025 has been massive. The Luxon-led Government's attacks on workers, on Te Tiriti, on pay equity, on educators, on health workers, and on the public service, have been relentless.
But despite everything thrown at working people, we've also seen some massive wins. We've fought back together with strike action. We've unified with days of action. We have focused on what matters. Make no mistake, 2026 will be wild, and we are ready for it! Source - New Zealand Council of Trade Unions
