Our
Story

History

In 1988 The Wairarapa Women's Centre (Formerly The Wairarapa Women's Resource Centre) was established and incorporated with the purpose of providing ongoing support and education to women.

The Centre has since played a roll in the lives of many, and thanks to support from voulenteers, has ensured the Centre remain an integral part of the Wairarapa Community.

Future

The WWC strives to be a centre for women to relax, learn and participate. To facilitate this we focus on two core elements:

Regular workshops - For personal and skill development.

Resources and information for clients

Volunteers - A pathway for work experience and up-skilling.
