On behalf of the Board, it is my pleasure to present the Nuku Ora Annual Report for 2023/ 2024.

This past year can be characterised as a time of change and as it is for others in our sector, a time of confronting the challenges inherent in our operating environment. In the face of ongoing change, I am proud of the progress we have made across the many programmes of work we oversee.

Regional Participation Landscape

Nuku Ora uses research and insights to help identify communities that may face barriers to being active. We also assess current participation rates and explore the types of physical activity people engage in and may want to pursue in the future. This combined data informs our operational approach, guiding our initiatives and programmes to effectively support and engage with the communities we serve.

These insights were gathered through the ActiveNZ survey, conducted between January 2023 and January 2024, across the greater Wellington region.

A Community-led Development Approach

Here at Nuku Ora, we drive change by prioritising the needs of communities and ensuring our work is people centred. We achieve this through local insights, identifying local strengths, and understanding local aspirations. Thanks to NZCT, we have been able to provide significant financial support to geographical priority communities, contributing $148,274 to Porirua and $107,611.96 to Lower Hutt for community-led initiatives. The following video showcases how empowering local organisations to offer physical activity opportunities helps them achieve their unique goals, leading to a positive community impact.
