Nestled in the middle of Phillipstown, we have an amazing and unique space that offers a wide range of services, activities and programmes to our local residents and wider Ōtautahi.
Within the Hub, we have three core sections: Our Community Garden, Our Permanent Residents and our 4 Hub Lounge Rooms.
Community Garden
Our Community Garden is run by a full-time Gardner and our team of volunteers.
All of the produce harvested by this space is then given out to the community while also offering opportunities for education and work experience.

Hub Lounge Rooms
We have 4 lounge rooms with plenty of space that anyone in the community can rent on an hourly basis for a very low price. Through these rooms, we have many different groups who run their own regular or on-off courses.
