Get free curtains in Wainuiomata

Sustainability Trust

Wellington Curtain Bank returns to Wainuiomata! We make it easier for some communities to access our Curtain Bank — by coming to them.

Anyone with a Community Services Card or Super Gold Combo Card can go to Wainuiomata Community Centre to pick up a window measurement form, take it home to fill out the details, then bring it back to complete the order. We then make the curtains and get them back to Wainuiomata for families to hang.

We're working with Wainuiomata Community Centre to bring the service to Wainui whanau from August 13 to 24. See more info about the Wellington Curtain Bank here.

For more info, you can contact the Curtain Bank on freephone 0508 78 78 24 x 705 or Wainuomata Community Centre on 04 564 5262.
