Welcome to Waiora

Waiora is a space where socially focussed organisations can thrive. It is a space where like-minded organisations can come together to connect and deliver services to our community.

Based in Taupō we offer co-working spaces, meeting rooms and leased private office space dedicated to the success of not for profit, social enterprise and charitable organisations.

With social impact front of mind, our kaupapa is people, community, connection and collaboration.  

If you, or your organisation would like to be a part of Waiora, come and talk to us about what we can offer.

Membership

We operate a membership model so you or your organisation must hold at least a ‘Connection’ membership to book our meeting spaces and use the facilities here at Waiora.

Waiora is for everyone. A place where socially-focused organisations can thrive.

At Waiora, we work as a collective to build a greater impact for the people we serve.

Manaakitanga

We treat each other with kindness and offer our support readily. 

Reaching into social services takes enormous courage, we must meet that courage equally with awhi and respect. This is a safe and welcoming space for everyone.

Ako 

Our learning flows between us

Our communities are always changing and so must we. Embracing new ways and changing old ones can be hard. When we approach this with curiosity and courage, we can lean into change together. 

Mahi Tahi 

Better, together 

By working together, we create greater impact for the people we work with and those we serve. 

Whānaungatanga

Everyone Belongs 

We exist to serve the communities in which we work. We are united by a sense of service and determination to help others. We are deeply connected by this. 

Wai has always been a part of our past,

is part of our present, and will continue to be part of our future. Every body of water is considered mauri, and because of this, it holds a sacred place within the hapori.

At Waiora, we help those around us to find balance so our communities can flourish.
