When politics turns into smear campaigns and personal attacks, real issues get left behind. Affordable homes, fair wages, reliable transport, a healthy environment — these are the things that actually matter to people.

That’s why this election is so important. We can choose division and distractions, or we can choose hope, respect, and community.

🗳️ Voting is open now — make your voice count. Because we’re stronger together.

And we're doing a part 2!!

What if Wellington truly reflected the hopes we have for a just, sustainable, and thriving city — not in 30 years, but right now?

REGISTER FOR FREE HERE: https://events.humanitix.com/re-imagine-p-neke-co-design-our-city

Re-imagine Pōneke is your chance to dream big, share ideas, and co-create a bold, people-powered vision for our city’s future. Together we’ll explore what a better Wellington could look like, from affordable housing and climate action, to transport, community spaces, and beyond.

This is a half-day unconference which means you help shape the agenda. Bring your ideas, join sessions that matter to you, or even lead one yourself. Along the way, a live illustrator will be capturing our shared vision in real time.

🗓 Friday 29 August
🕚 11.30 am – 4.00 pm
📍 Two/FiftySeven, Pōneke
🎟 Free to join!
🍕 Limo pizzas for lunch!

Whether you’re a seasoned organiser, new to local politics, or just someone who loves this city and wants to see it thrive, you belong in this conversation.

Let’s make space to connect, imagine, and create the Wellington we actually want to live in. ❤️

Young people are being left out of local decisions that shape their future. Stronger Together is here to change that. Let’s make local democracy relevant, honest, and ours. 💥
