Talking Cafés are a great opportunity to meet people, make new connections and learn more about your community. Pop in for a quick cuppa, or stay for some longer conversations with friendly people.

Wellby Talking Cafés welcome everyone and anyone. There is no need to register, just turn up on the day.

Coffee and tea are provided.

Meeting at the Community Centre.

We are a great welcoming group of over-65s that meet every month for social connection, a cuppa
and morning tea and to learn something new, about ourselves or what services are available
to us. Please join us at the Memorial Hall Tapawera (Next to the toy library).

Meet at the Tapawera Hotel

Established during 2013 to provide a place for men in the Tapawera and districts community to learn skills from each other;

• engage and support all groups of men in the Tapawera and districts community to promote identity, sociability, companionship, physical activity, and education;
• share, disseminate and preserve the skills, abilities and interests that are relevant to the members and the community.

Located at the Tapawera Recreation Reserve - The entrance is from Matai Cres, just before number 14

Encouraging the nurture of gardens and friendships within the region.

We meet on the second Thursday of each month, either at a local garden with our own picnic, or on occasion a venue where we might have a guest speaker.

Money is raised through monthly raffles, and an auction where members vie for donated plants or garden related items.

Funds are used to support local charities, as well as subsidise special outings for members. Where else can you get such value for a $5 annual membership?!
