WELCOME TO NELSON WOMEN'S CENTRE

A supportive place where all women can flourish

Thanks!  to Transport and Marine Covers

  

At the Nelson Women's Centre, we are constantly amazed by the generosity of businesses and members of the Nelson community.

 

Christine Clark and her team at Transport and Marine Covers spent time making and donating to us, a shade sail to cover the new deck and building that was built by the students in the building programme at NMIT in 2016. 

 

The shade sail reduces the sauna effect from the sun in our new exterior counselling room.  It also ties the outdoor area together and provides shade from the intensity of the sun for lunchtime relaxing and sharing, for extended workshop space and for clients to relax and enjoy our outdoor space.

 

Thank you Christine for your generous community spirit and for your gift to the Nelson Women's Centre.

 

     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.

enthusiasm to help support the Centre in all its current and future endeavours.

Holistic Pulsing with Rona Spencer

 

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

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.
