WELCOME TO NELSON WOMEN'S CENTRE

A supportive place where all women can flourish

Kia ora tatou, next week from 16th - 22nd June is NZ Volunteer Week! 

 

This year the theme is 'weaving the people together' which is certainly appropriate as ever to our work. 

As a centre, we could not operate without the amazing support of our wonderful volunteers and the generous donation of time that they give. 

It's so essential in creating healthy communities.

     Volunteers Needed! 

Please apply and contribute.

 

The Centre needs more volunteers to help it in its many functions.

We are looking for two types of volunteer.


Those that we can call on for one-off working bees, particular projects and events.

We also require ongoing volunteers who can commit to 4-5 hours on one day per week.  These volunteers would help support the day to day running of the Centre including coordinating our Volunteer staff.

Long standing Collective Body Member Elena Meredith will resign from her position

The Centre is now looking for new members to who can bring skills and 
enthusiasm to help support the Centre in all its current and future endeavours.

Holistic Pulsing with Rona Spencer - from 11 February

 

Holistic Pulsing is a mind/body therapy that uses a rhythmic rocking movement that works on many levels, allowing muscles and other tissues to 'let go'.  Gentle lengthening, stretching and opening techniques are sometimes also used. Facilitated dialogue further allows you to become curious about your body and where it is holding energy

HOW YOU CAN HELP

 

Governing Collective Volunteers

We need passionate women to be part of the Collective that makes decisions about the day-to-day running, and the future, of the Centre.

 

The Governing Collective plays a very important role at the Centre. We have a flat hierarchy and we work together to help make a difference for women in the community.


We are looking for one or two dedicated women to fill vacancies in the Collective. If you would like to make a difference and are dedicated to women's causes; and can make a small monthly time commitment, we would love to hear from you.
