Community resilience is our main aim.
Sustainable Whanganui Trust wants the whole community to flourish in these changing and challenging times.
We have resources (and considerable collective wisdom) to help our community become
more self-sufficient and live sustainably and creatively.
Our resources page is a good place to start.
HOLIDAY HOURS – WhEB, REUSE ACADEMY and GREEN BIKES
The WhEB office, ReUse Academy and Green Bikes will stay open until Friday 21 December.
We’ll be closed over Christmas and New Year, though when volunteers are available they will drop in at random times to water our plants and tidy things away so you may find us open temporarily.
The WhEB, RUA and Green Bikes will re-open week of 7 January 2019. (Green Bikes open on Friday only as usual.)
