Welcome to the Karori Community Centre
Karori Community Centre is a vibrant and welcoming multi-purpose place,
for people of all ages, cultures and interests to positively connect.
We host a wide variety of community activities and events and
provide our people with an affordable space to meet, learn, relax, keep a fit mind and body,
get support, do business, host an event and hire mobility equipment.
Karori Community Centre is looking for three new people
to join our Management Committee:
* Secretary of Management Committee
* Treasurer and
* A Committee Member
The Community Centre is at the heart of the town centre in Karori. We are situated behind the Mobil Station and provide spaces for community groups and small businesses to meet.
Over 1000 people come to events at the Community Centre each week.
The Community Centre employs three part time staff to operate the Centre.
Early next year, the Karori Event Centre will be opened.
The staff at the Community Centre will manage this community venue.
The Community Centre runs the Karori Youth Centre and we host St John’s Op Shop,
Karori Foodbank, Wellington West Citizens’ Advice Bureau, and the Toy Library.
We are an incorporated society and are recognised as a charity by the Charities Commission. Our Management Committee meets monthly.
Our current secretary has just moved into paid employment, she will step down as secretary, but is staying as part of the Management Committee.
The treasurer is ably supported by staff.
