W&W has been going for about 17 years, started up by our Social Worker Heather Evans.  Around 2009 we changed the name from Seniors Group to Wisdom and Wellbeing to reflect what the group was all about.  The Group was set up for older people in the South Wairarapa who are feeling cut off from the community and their support networks.

We are a small group committed to making a difference in our town.  Our aim is to beautify our town.  To date, our projects include providing public benches in local parks and reserves, where we’ve also planted trees and maintain garden beds and planters on the main street which are not under the auspices of City Care.  We have commissioned and installed 2 gateway signs at the entranceways to Featherston.  Our future projects include additional gateway signs at State Highway 53 entrance to Featherston.  We produce annual fundraising calendars to raise funds, we are grateful to the public for their support in purchasing these.  Look out for us in our hi-viz vests with the Beautification Group logo!

Anyone interested in joining our group or finding out more information please contact us, we’d love to hear from you.
