Te Wāhi Āwhina

A community support space at 117 Manners Street, helping communities and businesses access the services they need.

Closed

Te Wāhi Āwhina closed on Friday 20 December 2024.

Te Wāhi Āwhina opened in May 2021 under the Pōneke Promise, a coordinated community driven initiative to keep our city safe. In late 2023, Ministry of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) confirmed funding to extend Te Wāhi Āwhina operations for a further 12-months. HUD has confirmed that there is no further funding available.
