Boys’ and Girls’ Institute
The Wellington Boys’ and Girls’ Institute (BGI) is a youth development organisation, established in 1883. Way back then, we were known for setting up an essential community bathing facility, where young people and their families could wash. Since, we’ve evolved alongside the needs of Wellington’s youth – running programmes and projects which support, inspire, and challenge our rangatahi (young people) to wholeheartedly embrace who they are.
