Christmas Appeal 2024
- Wellington Women's House
- Christmas can be a difficult time for many of our residents, as it often brings additional financial and emotional stress. The pressure of covering extra costs, looking after themselves, or making the holiday special for their family—especially if they have any children—can feel overwhelming. Some may even find this season to be a triggering time due to past experiences or isolation.

Creativity & Collaboration
- Wellington Women's House
- E huri tō aroaro ki te rā, tukunme tō ataarangi ki muri i a koe In a heartwarming display of creativity, community spirit, and resourcefulness, the Wellington Women's House recently unveiled a mural that serves as a vibrant symbol of transformation, hope, endurance, and aroha. What began as a discarded piece of plywood in the backyard transformed into a remarkable work of art through a collaborative effort between the house's staff and residents. This unique project unfolded over the months of April and May, leaving an indelible mark on the Wellington Women's House and its community.

Kia ora rawa atu Altrusa Ohariū
- Wellington Women's House
- Altrusa is an international non-profit organization making local communities better through leadership, partnership, and service. Altrusa Ohariu were so kind to donate 20 handmade toiletry bags, each full of donated items for the residents of our whare. These bags were made by Karen, an Altrusa member, and the donated toiletry items were packed at the May Altrusa meeting. Natalie the Club President delivered the bags and we were able to give her a wee tour of our whare and learn abit more about her mahi.
