Welcome back to another edition of our Community Networks Aotearoa Member Spotlight! This time, we're thrilled to shine the spotlight on a new member, the Hub Te Puke - a thriving community organisation dedicated to empowering and connecting the residents of Te Puke and its surrounding areas. 

A Place of Community and Connection: The Hub Te Puke.

Located in the heart of Te Puke, the Te Puke Hub is much more than just a community centre; it's a vibrant hub of activity, growth, and support for people of all ages and backgrounds. Since its inception, the Te Puke Hub has been on a mission to foster a sense of belonging and facilitate opportunities for personal and community development.

The Te Puke Hub is passionate about supporting local initiatives that make a positive impact on the community. Whether it's collaborating with other community groups or working on projects to enhance the environment, the Hub plays an active role in fostering a strong, connected, and sustainable community. 

Diverse Programs and Services 

At the heart of the Te Puke Hub are the diverse programs and services it offers to meet the varying needs and interests of the community. From educational workshops and skill-building courses to food banks and support groups, the Hub strives to be a place where people can learn, grow, and connect with one another. 

Among the many programs, the Te Puke Hub hosts:
