Henderson-Massey Local Board

19 May 2020

 

 

Endorsing the Business Improvement District (BID) programme targeted rates 2020/2021

File No.: CP2020/05022

 

  

 

Te take mō te pūrongo

Purpose of the report

1.       To seek local board endorsement to recommend that the Governing Body sets the targeted rates for the Te Atatu Peninsula Business Improvement District (BID) programme for the 2020/2021 financial year.

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

2.         Business Improvement Districts (BID) are areas within Tāmaki Makaurau where local business and property owners have agreed to work together to improve their business environment and attract new businesses and customers.

3.       Auckland Council supports business associations operating BID programmes by collecting a targeted rate from commercial properties within a defined geographic area. The funds from the targeted rate are then provided by way of a BID grant to the relevant business association.

4.       Under the Auckland Council shared governance arrangements, local boards are allocated several decision-making responsibilities in relation to BIDs. One of these is to annually recommend BID targeted rates to the Governing Body. 

5.       Each business association operating a BID programme sets the BID grant amount at its 2019 Annual General Meeting when members vote to approve an operational budget for the following financial year. This budget funds the implementation of a business plan that delivers programmes based on each BID’s strategic priorities.

6.       With the support of their members and based on approved business plans, Te Atatu Peninsula BID-operating business association proposed an increase to its BID targeted rates for the 2020/2021 financial year. Te Atatu Peninsula Business Association (TAPBA) members supported a 11% ($10,000) increase to $102,000.

7.       Business associations operating BID programmes are incorporated societies that are independent of council. To sustain public trust and confidence in the council, however, there must be a balance between the independence of the business association and the accountability for monies collected by a public sector organisation.

8.       For the council to be confident that the funds provided to the BIDs are being used appropriately, the council requires the BIDs to comply with the Business Improvement District (BID) Policy (2016) (Hōtaka ā-Rohe Whakapiki Pakihi), known as the BID Policy. 

9.       The council staff regularly monitor compliance with the BID Policy and this report is part of an active risk management programme to minimise inappropriate use of funds.

10.     Staff are satisfied the Te Atatu Peninsula Business Association sufficiently complies with the BID Policy.

11.     Staff propose the Henderson-Massey Local Board receives this report and recommends to the Governing Body the setting of the BID targeted rate sought by the TAPBA.

12.     After the Annual Budget is approved, the council collects the targeted rate funds and distributes them in quarterly BID grant payments, effective from 1 July 2020, to allow the business associations to implement programmes that improve the local business environment – and reflect the economic aspirations of the Henderson-Massey Local Board Plan.

13.     TAPBA will, like all BID-operating business associations, continue to play an important role in helping local businesses face twin challenges: firstly, recovering from the economic impact created by the COVID-19 pandemic and, secondly, responding to the climate change emergency.

 

Ngā tūtohunga

Recommendation/s

That the Henderson-Massey Local Board:

a)      recommends to the Governing Body the setting of the targeted rates for inclusion in the Annual Budget 2020/2021 for the following Business Improvement District (BID) programme:

i)        $102,000 for Te Atatu Peninsula Business Association Incorporated.

 

 

Horopaki

Context

BID programmes promote economic well-being and collaboration with the council.

14.     Tāmaki Makaurau is growing fast and is projected to include another one million people in the next 30 years. This level of population growth will present challenges and opportunities for Auckland town centres and commercial precincts.

15.       Business Improvement Districts (BIDs) are areas within Auckland where local business and property owners have agreed to work together, with support from the council, to improve their business environment and attract new businesses and customers.

16.     BID programmes provide the opportunity for the council family to partner with business associations, including TAPBA, to seize on the opportunities from Auckland’s growth and respond locally to changing economic conditions.

17.     BID programmes encourage collaboration to achieve greater local outcomes. They provide a mechanism to enable local boards to engage with the business sector in local town centres and commercial precincts in a co-ordinated way.

BIDs provide essential support in the economic recovery from COVID-19.

18.     The economy has been heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and related lockdown, including both retail-based town centres and industrial precincts.

19.     BID-programme operating business associations will now, more than ever, provide the local business leadership required to help businesses recover from the economic shock and transition to a viable future state.

BIDs are funded by a targeted rate on business ratepayers within a set area.

20.       BID programmes are funded by a targeted rate applied to all commercially rated properties within a designated area around a town centre or commercial precinct.

21.       Auckland Council supports business associations operating BID programmes by collecting the targeted rates and providing these funds, in their entirety, by way of a BID grant to the relevant business association.

22.       This revenue is paid to the business associations every quarter to provide a regular and sustainable income stream to implement an agreed work programme.

 

 

 

The BID Policy is the mechanism to ensure accountability for BID targeted rates.

23.     Auckland Council’s Business Improvement District (BID) Policy (2016) (Hōtaka ā-Rohe Whakapiki Pakihi) ensures accountability for BID targeted rate funding and encourages good governance and operational management.

24.     The policy outlines the principles behind the council’s BID programme; creates the process for establishing, expanding, amalgamating and disestablishing BIDs; determines rating mechanisms; prescribes operating standards and guidelines; and sets accountability requirements. 

Diagram A: From calculation to approval, how the BID targeted rate is set.

The business association sets the BID grant amount to deliver its work programme.

25.     Each business association operating a BID programme prepares an annual business plan for the following financial year that will deliver programmes based on the BID’s strategic priorities.

26.     The cost of implementing that business plan is set out in an annual budget that the BID’s board (executive committee) agrees will be recommended for approval by the business association membership.

27.     The 2019 Annual General Meeting (AGM) provides the forum when members vote to approve the operational budget and, in doing so, set the requisite BID grant amount for the following financial year.

Local boards are responsible for recommending the targeted rate if a BID complies with the BID Policy.

28.     Under the Auckland Council shared governance arrangements, local boards are allocated several decision-making responsibilities in relation to BIDs. One of these is to annually recommend BID targeted rates to the Governing Body.  The board should recommend the setting of the targeted rate if it is satisfied that the BID is substantially complying with the BID Policy.

29.     BID programme manager Robynne Pringle (Te Atatu Peninsula) addressed the local board on 17 September 2019 to update members on the progress towards achieving their respective BID’s business and strategic plans.

30.     The Henderson-Massey Local Board approved a similar recommendation for the BID programme last year (resolution number HM/2019/64), as did 17 other local boards that have BID programmes operating in their area. 

The Governing Body sets the targeted rate when it approves the Annual Budget.

31.     The recommendation in this report is put into effect with the Governing Body’s approval of the Annual Budget 2020/2021 and its setting (striking) of the targeted rates.

32.     In accordance with the provisions of the Local Government Act 2002 and the Local Government (Rating) Act 2002, the Governing Body is authorized to make the final decisions on what BID programme targeted rates, if any, to set in any particular year or property (in terms of the amount and the geographic area to be rated).

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu

Analysis and advice

33.     BID programmes are operated by independent business associations, and their programmes and services are provided according to their members’ stated priorities. In recognition of their independent status, the BID Policy does not prescribe standards for programme effectiveness. That is a matter for the business association members to determine. Staff, therefore, cannot base recommendations on these factors, but only on the policy’s express requirements.

Te Atatu Peninsula complies with the BID Policy.

34.     Staff are satisfied the Te Atatu Peninsula Business Association has sufficiently comply with the BID Policy.

35.     The BID Policy sets an annual compliance deadline of 10 March for the information to be forwarded to the council. The table below summarises the above requirements for the three BIDs within the Henderson-Massey Local Board area as of 10 March 2020

36.     Staff require BID-operating business associations to provide to the council the following documents, and stay in touch with their local board at least once a year:

·     Current strategic plan – evidence of achievable medium to long-term opportunities.

·     Audited accounts – assurance that the BID-operating business association is managing its members’ BID targeted rates funds responsibly.

·     Annual report on the year just completed – evidence that programmes are addressing priority issues that benefit BID targeted ratepayers.

·     Business plan for the coming year – detailed one-year programme, based on the strategic plan, to be achieved and resourced.

·     Indicative budget for the following year – Auckland Council’s Annual Budget requires targeted rates to be identified a year in advance to inform the Annual Budget process which sets all rates.

·     Board Charter – establishes guidelines for effective board governance and positive relationships between the association and its members.

·     Annual Accountability Agreement – certification that these requirements have been met.

·     Programme Agreement – a good faith agreement between each BID-operating business association and council that sets basic parameters of the council-business association relationship.

·     AGM minutes - in addition to the above, council receives the provisional minutes of each business association’s 2019 AGM meetings which contain the resolution, voted on by members, confirming the BID grant amount for the following financial year.

36.     In addition, BID-operating business associations must inform the council of progress with other compliance requirements, including:

·   Incorporated Society registration – a current registration of the business association and all required documents up to date.

·   Key initiatives – activities identified to be advanced in the next financial year.

·   Resolving problems or issues, if any – problems or issues that have an impact on the governance or operation of the BID programme.

37.     The BID Policy sets an annual compliance deadline of 10 March for the information to be forwarded to the council. The table below summarises the above requirements for the three BIDs within the Henderson-Massey Local Board area as of 10 March 2020.

Nothing to record

 

38.     As the Te Atatu Peninsula business association has sufficiently complied with the BID Policy, staff advise the local board to recommend to the Governing Body the setting of the targeted rates.

Te Atatu Peninsular increases BID grant.

39.     As shown in Table 2 below Te Atatu Peninsula Business Association proposed an increase to their BID targeted rates for the 2020/2021 financial year. The increased revenue, supported by TAPBA members at their 2019 AGM, will fund a range of initiatives and service level improvements as indicated in Table 1 (key initiatives).

40.     Te Atatu Peninsula Business Association’s 11% ($10,000) increase to $102,000.

41.     Of Tāmaki Makaurau’s 48 BID-operating business associations, most BIDs increased their targeted rates, ranging from 1.2% to 14.4%.

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi

Climate impact statement

42.     Through targeted rate-funded advocacy and activities, BID-operating business associations promote and often facilitate environmental sustainability programmes.

43.     From running carbon-reducing ‘shop local’ campaigns to transitioning to energy-efficient lighting and championing waste reduction and recovery programmes, there are many and increasing examples of BIDs within this role and beyond responding to the climate change emergency.

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

44.     Advocacy is a key service provided by business associations and those with BID programme-funded personnel are at an advantage. The BIDs ensure the views and ambitions of their members are provided to the council group, including CCOs, on those plans, policies and programmes that impact them.

45.     The BIDs work closely with Auckland Tourism Events and Economic Development (ATEED) on local economic development initiatives, events and sustainability programmes.

46.     The BIDs also work constructively with both Panuku and Auckland Transport on often controversial proposals and projects.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

47.     The local board’s views are most frequently expressed by its appointed representative on the board (executive committee) of each BID-operating business association. This liaison board member can attend BID board meetings to ensure there is a direct link between the council and the operation of the BID programme.

48.     Te Atatu Peninsular BID values its strong and enduring governance-to-governance relationship with the Henderson-Massey Local Board. The contributions by the local board’s ‘BID representatives’ (and alternates) have, for many years, promoted mutual understanding, collaboration and aligned economic outcomes.

Visions, plans aligned

49.     The Henderson Massey BID and local board share a keen interest in their area and are ambitious for its future and its people. They also share goals that include economic prosperity, community identity, placemaking and pride.

50.     Te Atatu Peninsular BID programme tangibly support the aspirations of the Henderson-Massey Local Board Plan 2017, specifically Outcome 2: A thriving local economy that supports quality of life. From their constitution to their activities, the BID exists to enhance their business district and grow Auckland’s GDP and sustain the economic viability of their targeted ratepaying members.

Local role, local funding, local benefit

51.     Recommending that the Governing Body strikes the targeted rates for the Te Atatu Peninsula business association means that the BID programme will continue to be funded from targeted rates on commercial properties in their districts, and provide services in accordance with their members’ priorities as stated in their strategic plans.

52.     Several local boards, including Henderson-Massey, provide additional funding to local business associations, however accountability for those grants is set by funding agreements between the local board and the business association. Those contractual obligations are apart from the requirements of the BID Policy and are not covered in this report.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

53.     At the 2018 Census, Māori make up more than 17.2% of the population living in the Henderson-Massey Local Board area, compared to 11.5% of AucklandIndividual business associations may, through operating their BID programme, identify opportunities for niche support or development of any Māori business sector in their role.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

54.     There are no financial implications for the local board. Targeted rates for BID-operating business associations are raised directly from commercial ratepayers in the district and used by the business association for improvements within that role. The council’s financial role is to collect the BID targeted rates and pass them directly to the association every quarter.

55.     The targeted rate is payable by the owners of the commercial properties within the geographic area of the individual BID programmes.  In practice, this cost is often past on to the business owners who occupy these properties.  This cost may be harder to meet at a time when businesses are financially impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.  Council may be considering extending the rates remission policy to commercial property owners as part of the 2020/2021 annual plan.  If approved, this would help mitigate impact of the targeted rate on rate-payers who are struggling financially.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

56.     There are no direct financial risks to the local board or the council that could result from this recommendation to endorse the BID targeted rate for this business association.

57.     To sustain public trust and confidence in the council, there should be a balance between the independence of the business association and the accountability for monies collected by a public sector organisation.

58.     The rules and obligations of the BID Policy are intended to help minimise the potential for BIDs to misuse funds, by requiring each BID to plan for the intended use of those funds, report on its activities to its members and to have its accounts audited.

59.     The council staff regularly monitor compliance with the BID Policy and this report is part of an active risk management programme to minimise inappropriate use of funds.

60.     The economic impact created by the COVID-19 global pandemic are being felt everywhere, including Auckland’s town centres and business precincts. The BID programme is an internationally proven approach to engage and empower local businesses. The three BID programmes in this local board area will, through business resilience and recovery initiatives, help to mitigate some of the economic effects of the pandemic.

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

61.     If the board supports this report, it will recommend to the Governing Body that the BID targeted rates be set as part of the Annual Budget 2020/2021.

62.     After the Annual Budget is approved, the council collects the targeted rate funds and distributes them in quarterly BID grant payments, effective from 1 July 2020, to the TAPBA. This will enable Te Atatu Peninsula BID to implement programmes that improve the local business environment, support businesses to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic and help address the climate change emergency through sustainability initiatives.

5.       Under the Auckland Council shared governance arrangements, local boards are allocated several decision-making responsibilities in relation to BIDs. This includes:

a)    the establishment of new BID programmes

b)    changes to existing BID programme maps and

c)    recommends the BID programmes targeted rate to the governing body.

6.       The business associations operating BID programmes are incorporated societies that are independent of council.

7.       Auckland Council Business Improvement District (BID) Policy 2016 (Hōtaka ā-Rohe Whakapiki Pakihi), known as the BID Policy, sets out the requirements to establish a new BID programme and boundary area and, the governance and reporting requirements of an operational BID programme.

8.       Since the unsuccessful Central Park Henderson BID ballot (March 2016), Central Park Henderson Business Association (CPHBA) has worked positively to build membership and support for a BID programme.

9.       The Henderson-Massey Local Board (Local Board) approved the proposed Central Park Henderson BID establishment map, (Attachment A), at its business meeting held on 16 July 2019, (resolution number HM/2019/98).

10.     The council draft annual budget 2020/2021 and local board agreement consultation documents, delivered in February 2020, included the proposal to establish a new Central Park Henderson BID programme and targeted rate. This gave members of the public the opportunity to provide feedback on the proposal.

11.     The Central Park Henderson BID programme will represent 1777 business ratepayers and owners, with a proposed BID targeted rate collection utilising the hybrid mechanism set at a flat rate of $250.00 + GST per rateable property per annum, plus a percentage multiplied by capital value per BID rateable property, which will equate to a BID grant sum of $500,000, effective from 1 July 2020.

COVID-19 affected the Central Park Henderson BID ballot

12.     The BID Policy sets out the mandate for a successful ballot; ballots must achieve a threshold of at least 25% of the total voting forms returned. Of the returned votes, at least 51% of the voters must support the proposition raised on the voting form.

13.     23.4% of ballot papers were returned.  Of those votes returned, 64.42% voted in support of the establishment of the new BID programme and targeted rate and 35.34% voted no.

14.     The BID Policy notes that there may be exceptional or unexpected circumstances that influence a ballot result. The Policy states that: The circumstance could be due to an earthquake or major extended business interruption that has impacted on the voting and ballot process. The Policy notes the evidence of such a circumstance would be noted in the voting report from the independent election agent verifying the returned and counted voting papers.

15.     There is evidence, as confirmed in the Election Services Ltd ballot report, that the reason the voting was low in the Central Park Henderson BID ballot was because of Covid-19.  It is considered that the effects of Covid-19 fall within the definition of “exceptional and unexpected circumstances” contained in the Policy.  

16.     In circumstances where the ballot was affected by Covid-19 and because the threshold was very close to being met with a clear majority in favour of the BID programme, council staff recommend to the Local Board that it approve the establishment of the programme.

17.     If the Local Board approves the establishment of the programme in these circumstances, it is noted that the public will be able to provide further feedback on this intended approach, as part of the emergency budget consultation, before the Governing Body sets the targeted rate. 

18.     As an alternative option to approving the programme, it is open to the Local Board to not approve the programme and instead make a recommendation that the ballot be re-done.  However, re-doing the ballot would incur further costs and likely lead to further delays in adopting the BID programme.  For these reasons, council staff recommend that the Local Board proceed with approving the programme.

19.     CPHBA, in response to both the ballot result and COVID-19, have taken into consideration the financial implications for those affected and who will be required to pay a BID targeted rate. CPHBA have approved reducing the proposed 2020/2021 BID budget from $500,000 to $400,000, lowering the average BID targeted rate payment from $566 to $453, a saving of approx. $110.00 per annum per rateable property.

Next steps

20.     Staff propose the Local Board approves the establishment of the of the new Central Park Henderson BID programme and boundary map, (Attachment A), and recommends setting the targeted rate at the lesser amount of $400,000 for the 2020/2021 financial year.

21.     It is noted that information regarding the ballot and the Governing Body’s proposal to set the targeted rate, will be included in the emergency budget consultation document and supporting information.

22.     After the emergency budget is approved, the council will collect the targeted rate funds and distribute them in quarterly BID grant payments, to allow CPHBA to implement programmes that improve the local business environment.

23.     If the establishment of the BID programme is approved, council staff will regularly monitor BID Policy compliance, and provide assistance to CPHBA as part of an active risk management programme to minimise the risk of inappropriate use of funds.

24.     CPHBA, like all BID-operating business associations, will play an important role in helping local businesses recover from the economic impact created by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Horopaki

Context

25.     Tāmaki Makaurau is projected to attract another one million people in the next 30 years. This level of growth will present challenges and opportunities for Auckland town centres and commercial precincts.

26.     Business Improvement Districts (BID) are areas within Auckland where local businesses and property owners have agreed to work together, with support from the council, to improve their business environment and attract new businesses and customers.

27.     BID programmes are operated by independent business associations (incorporated societies), their programmes and services are provided according to their members’ stated priorities. In recognition of their independent status, the BID Policy does not prescribe standards for programme effectiveness. That is a matter for the business association members to determine.  Staff, therefore, have no view on these factors.  Staff assess whether the BID programme meets the BID Policy’s requirements.

28.     BID programmes provide the opportunity for the council family to partner with business associations to seize on the opportunities from Auckland’s growth and respond locally to changing economic conditions.

29.     BID programmes encourage collaboration to achieve greater local outcomes. They provide a mechanism to enable local boards to engage with the business sector in local town centres and business areas in a co-ordinated way.

30.     If the Central Park Henderson Business Association Inc (CPHBA) has its BID programme approved, they will be required to approve and sign the BID programme agreement. This agreement, signed by both the council and the business association, requires the parties to follow the responsibilities, processes and reporting requirements outlined in the BID Policy. 

The BID Policy sets out the process for establishing a new BID programme

31.     The BID Policy outlines the principles behind the council’s BID programme; creates the process for establishing new programmes, expanding, amalgamating and disestablishing existing BIDs; determines rating mechanisms; prescribes operating standards and guidelines; and sets accountability requirements.

32.     Included in the BID establishment process the business association must develop and agree on:

·     a list of eligible BID voters

·     a BID business plan and operating budget, including the annual BID grant income needed to deliver the BID programmes to BID area and BID members

·     the BID boundary map area (Attachment A)

·     the rating mechanism to be used to calculate the targeted rate

·     host at least 3 public meetings encouraging eligible voters to attend and take part in an information briefing and question-and-answer session

·     hold an independent postal ballot to determine the level of support for the BID programme and targeted rate.

33.     The BID Policy sets out the mandate for a successful ballot; ballots must achieve a threshold of at least 25% of the total voting forms returned. Of the returned votes, at least 51% of the voters must support the proposition raised on the voting form.

BIDs are funded by a targeted rate on commercial ratepayers

34.     BID programmes are funded by a targeted rate applied to all commercial rated properties within a designated area around a town centre or commercial precinct.

35.     Auckland Council supports business associations operating BID programmes by collecting the targeted rates and providing these funds, in their entirety, by way of a BID grant to the business association.

36.     This revenue is paid to the business associations every quarter to provide a regular and sustainable income stream to implement an agreed work programme.

The Governing Body sets the targeted rate when it approves the Annual Budget

37.     The recommendation in this report will be put into effect when the Governing Body approvals the Annual Budget 2020/2021, and its sets (strikes) the targeted rates.

38.     In accordance with the provisions of the Local Government Act 2002 and the Local Government (Rating) Act 2002, the Governing Body is authorised to make the final decisions on BID programme targeted rates.

Central Park Henderson Business Association Inc progress towards BID status

39.     In July 2016, the Central Park Henderson Business Association Inc was re-launched on the back of the unsuccessful 2016 BID ballot. The CPHBA undertook an extensive review of the 2016/2017 establishment project and identified a number of lessons for any future BID establishment.

40.     Between 2017 and early 2019, the CPHBA focused on identifying what needed to be done to strengthen the establishment project to ensure there was a strong foundation for a successful ballot before March 31, 2020.

41.     The CPHBA Special General Meeting (SGM) held on 11 April 2019 provided the forum for members to vote to approve the proposed BID establishment map (Attachment A).

Local boards have allocated authority

42.     Under the Auckland Council shared governance arrangements, local boards are allocated several decision-making responsibilities in relation to BIDs. In the case of a new BID programme the local board:

a)    approves the establishment of new BID programmes, including BID programme boundary maps

b)    recommends the BID programmes targeted rate to the Governing Body.

43.     The Henderson-Massey Local Board approved the proposed BID establishment map at its meeting held on 16 July 2019 (resolution number HM/2019/98).

44.     The table below shows the reporting path for a BID expansion project and indicates in green where this project currently sits in that process.

45.       This report provides a summary of the completed CPHBA BID establishment process, the exceptional and unexpected circumstances that influenced the ballot result and provides information on any subsequent changes to the BID ballot documents and, confirms if all aspects of the BID Policy have been successfully completed.

Analysis and advice

The Central Park Henderson Business Association BID establishment project

46.     The CPHBA could play a significant role in facilitating and creating local economic development in the Henderson-Massey Local Board area and in particular will provide essential support in the post COVID-19 recovery.

47.     The decision to proceed with a BID establishment followed growing interest from the Central Park Henderson business community including business owners keen to be part of a collective group.

48.     The CPHBA successfully executed a comprehensive project plan to engage with all eligible voters. The plan included:

·    A communications programme to highlight the opportunities, and benefits of a BID programme to the wider Central Park Henderson business community

·         A detailed database of eligible votes (business owners and property ratepayers) located within the proposed BID programme boundary.

·    Consultation with council staff regarding the approach to the establishment project and ballot and

·    Holding the required number of public meetings, encouraging eligible voters to attend and take part in an information briefing and question-and-answer session

Full details of the project are outlined in the CPHBA report (Attachment B).

The CPHBA sets the BID boundary map, BID targeted rate mechanism and the BID grant amount needed to deliver its work programme

49.     The CPHBA board (executive committee) prepares the information for the new BID boundary map, the inaugural BID plan and operating budget for the following financial year, based on the feedback collected from those local businesses and property owners who qualify as eligible BID voters.

50.     Staff worked within the BID Policy to help CPHBA to identify the new BID establishment boundary map (Attachment A), which defines the BID programme and targeted rate area at the time of establishment. The purpose of the BID map is to capture:

·     the geographical area that defines the collection of the BID targeted rate

·     the ratable properties for striking the BID targeted rate – these are the properties currently zoned business/industrial who will be paying a business rate at the time of the BID ballot

·     the BID eligible voter – being business/industrial zoned ratepayer and business owners only

·     the delivery area of the BID programme.

51.       Once the map is agreed, staff provided CPHBA with a rate modelling spreadsheet to help with their budget decision-making and identify the BID grant amount needed to deliver its work programme. The spreadsheet models the BID targeted rate collection; it includes options for changing the rating mechanism to see how each option influences the amount of the BID targeted rate that each BID ratepayer will pay. When considering a BID grant amount and rating mechanism, the CPHBA must take into account:

·     a fair and reasonable share of the targeted rate

·     the benefit each BID member will receive from the BID programme spend

·     what the local business and property owners can reasonably afford.

52.     The CPHBA BID programme would represent 1777 business ratepayers and owners, made up of approximately 1,016 rateable properties and 977 business owners. The CPHBA board elected to use the hybrid mechanism to calculate the CPH BID targeted. The hybrid mechanism chosen is a flat rate of $250 + GST plus percentage (approx. 0.00015252) multiplied by the capital value per rateable property. Initially, the CPHBA proposed that the hybrid rate would collect a BID grant of $500,000 excluding GST, effective from 1 July 2020.

Deciding on the hybrid mechanism

53.     The BID Policy provides three targeted rate mechanisms for setting the BID targeted rate:

a)    Flat rate – up to a maximum of $500 per BID rateable property

b)    Percentage against capital value of the commercial rated property – a calculation that identifies the rate in the dollar required to raise the BID grant amount

c)    Hybrid – a combination of the flat rate and percentage options – this is the preferred mechanism chosen by BID-operating business associations. This method manages the variances across property sizes/capital value and balances out the larger and smaller property BID targeted rates.

54.     Option b and c above, allows the BID operating business associations to adjust (as per the BID Policy) their BID grant amount each year to better manage any increased costs to implementing and delivering their business plan and work programme

The voting results achieved a majority in support of the establishment of the new BID programme and targeted rate

55.     The CPHBA was responsible for distributing, sharing all relevant BID information and manage the engagement process with all eligible voters to ensure they have the information to make an informed voting decision. 

56.     Election Services Ltd, the independent polling service provider, was commissioned by the CPHBA to undertake the ballot. The ballot was held between 28 February and 27 March 2020.

57.     A total of 1777 envelopes, representing all eligible voters, were lodged with NZ Post on 26 February 2020.

58.     Each envelope contained the following:

·         an CPHBA BID programme information booklet (Attachment C) highlighting:  

-     the purpose of the ballot and the benefits of being part of the BID programme

-     BID programme targeted rate information, the rating mechanism (a flat rate of $250 + GST, plus percentage (approx. 0.00015252) multiplied by the capital value per rateable property) and draft 2020/2021 budget and

-     map of the Central Park Henderson BID establishment area (Attachment A).

·         voting form

·         information on voting online and a prepaid envelope for returning the ballot form

·         contact details for eligible voters to seek further information.

59.     The question on the CPHBA voting form asked: Do you support the establishment of the Central Park Henderson Business Improvement District (BID) programme delivered by the Central Park Henderson Business Association Inc and accordingly support the paying of a targeted rate?

COVID-19 effect on voting.

60.     In the early stage of the voting period, feedback from voters was supportive of the proposed BID establishment. During the last two weeks of the balloting period and in the last few days before voting closed on 27 March 2020, it became evident the approaching COVID-19 virus and pending lockdown effected voting.

61.     The extent of the COVID-19 virus impact became evident from 19 March 2020, when New Zealand boarders closed to foreign visitors, the country moved to implement a Level 2 lockdown on 21 March and the Prime Minister implemented the National State of Emergency and Level 4 lockdown on 25 March 2020.

62.     The result of the Central Park Henderson BID establishment ballot, when voting closed at midday on 27 March 2020, showed that from a total of 1777 eligible voters, 416 (23.4%) returned their vote. Of the votes returned 64.42% (268) voted yes to the question. 35.34% (147) voted no.

63.     Election Services Ltd notes in their report (Attachment D) - The 23.4% does not meet the BID policy mandate of 25% return, this likely due to the Covid-19 situation.

And goes on to confirm: Although less than 25% of the eligible electors returned their voting document, it was decided (because of the Covid-19 situation) to proceed with counting the votes. Over 51% of those that voted supported the establishment of the Central Park Henderson Business Improvement District.

64.     Information and feedback from CPHBA board (executive committee) and Hot Leads (the telemarketing company contracted to phone eligible voters), reported:

·     many businesses were unable to access their properties during the last 7-10 days of the voting period and therefore unable to collect and return their voting papers

·     interest and engagement with the ballot dropped as voters focus turned to saving their business and preparing for the Level 4 lockdown

·     It is also noted that Election Services Ltd reported a number of replacement voting papers, were returned due to couriers unable to deliver the ballot pack as the business was closed.

65.     Election Services Ltd has provided a report (Attachment D) outlining the ballot process, results and voting documents.

66.     CPHBA BID expansion report April 2020 (Attachment B), provides an overview and the impact of COVID-19 on voting.

The BID Policy – exceptional or unexpected circumstances influencing the ballot

67.     The BID Policy under Mandate (Appendix 2, item 19, page 60) includes a reference to Exceptional or unexpected circumstances and notes:

It may be that exceptional or unexpected circumstances have influenced the ballot. This could be due to an earthquake or major extended business interruption that has impacted on the voting and ballot process.

68.     The BID Policy notes: the evidence of such a circumstance would be noted in the voting report from the independent election agent verifying the returned and counted voting papers.

69.     Council staff, in reliance on the evidence from the independent election services agent who conducted the ballot, are satisfied that the COVID-19 virus is an “exceptional or unexpected circumstance” that has had an impact on the ballot results.

70.     In these circumstances and acknowledging that the 25% threshold was very close to being met, and with a clear majority of the returned votes in favour of the programme, council staff recommend that the Local Board proceed to approve the BID programme. 

71.     If the Local Board approves the BID programme in these circumstances, then the council’s intent to adopt the BID Programme and to set the targeted rate, despite the ballot result and in reliance on the “exceptional circumstances” provision of the Policy, will be set out in the emergency budget consultation documents.  This will provide any affected parties with a further opportunity to provide feedback on this intended approach before the targeted rate is set by the Governing Body. 

Alternative option: refuse to approve the BID programme and request a further ballot

72.     Council staff note that as an alternative approach to approving the BID programme, it is open to the Local Board to not approve the new BID programme and to request a further ballot to be re-done at the CPHA’s discretion. 

73.     Requiring a further ballot would incur further costs and likely result in further delay to adopting the BID programme.  Further, any delay in the establishment of the BID programme runs the risk of CPHBA losing momentum for a BID establishment, which could result in the loss of key personnel. 

74.     For these reasons, the preferred option of council staff is for the Local Board to approve the programme rather than recommending that the ballot be re-done.

CPHBA Board reduced the BID grant amount for 2020/2021

75.     A CPHBA board meeting was held to review and amended the BID work programme, budget 2020/2021 and delivery, acknowledging the mandate and the pending financial impact on business brought about by the COVID-19 lockdown.

76.     The proposed Central Park Henderson BID grant amount was originally set at $500,00 per annum for the 2020/2021 financial year. The CPHBA board agreed to lower the BID targeted rate grant from $500,000 (noted in the BID campaign and ballot documents) to $400,000.

77.     The hybrid BID targeted mechanism of a flat rate of $250 + GST plus a percentage multiplied by the capital value per rateable property will remain. Reducing the BID targeted rate grant to $400,000 will lessen the impact of the BID targeted rate on ratepayers as follows:

·        a flat rate of $250 per rateable property

·        the percentage multiplied by capital value will reduce from approx. 0.00015252 to approx. 0.00009910.

78.     This means, each BID rateable property, on average, will pay approx. $456.00 + GST per annuum, down from approx. $566.00 +GST, equalling a saving of approximately $110.00 per annum.  In agreeing to this lesser amount, CPHBA has taken into consideration the financial implications for those affected and who will be required to pay a BID targeted rate.

79.     A revised CHPBA BID budget 2020/2021 is included in this report (Attachment E).

CPHBA member approval

80.     Following the close of the ballot, CPHBA was required to hold a Special General Meeting
to present to the CPHBA members the ballot results and any amendments to the BID programme, budget or map identified during the balloting processes.

81.     Due to the COVID-19 lockdown, the CPHBA was not able to hold the SGM, however an urgent CPHBA board (executive committee) meeting was called and conducted via electronic means.

82.     The CPHBA board meeting agenda included special resolutions approving:

·     the BID boundary map (Attachment A)

·     the revised 2020/2021 budget (Attachment E)

·     the BID rating mechanism of $250 + GST, plus percentage multiplied by capital value per rateable property

·     the ballot results and

·     the BID programme supporting documents.

83.     The CPHBA board passed the special resolutions and a copy of the board meeting minutes are attached as Attachment F.

84.     CPHBA will be required to hold a Special General Meeting (SGM) once the COVID-19 lockdown is removed. The SGM agenda will allow members to approve an amend CPHBA constitution (that is not inconsistent with the BID Policy) and approve and sign the council BID programme agreement.

85.     The results of the CPHBA BID establishment ballot has identified there is a sufficient level of support (64.43%) from eligible voters voting yes to establish this new BID programme and targeted rate.

Climate impact statement

86.     There are no impacts on emissions or increase resilience of communities to climate change resulting from the decision to establish this new BID programme and recommend to the Governing Body to set the BID targeted rate.

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

87.     Advocacy is a key service provided by business associations and those with BID programme-funded personnel are at an advantage. CPHBA BID programme will ensure the views of its members are provided to council teams, including CCOs, on those plans and programmes that impact them.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

88.     The new BID programme supports the Henderson-Massey Local Board Plan 2017, specifically Outcome 2: A thriving local economy that supports quality of life.

89.     The proposed Central Park Henderson BID establishment information was included in the annual budget 2020/2021 consultation documents and the Henderson-Massey Local Board Agreement.

90.     The Henderson-Massey Local Board approved the proposed Central Park Henderson BID establishment map at its business meeting on 16 July 2019 (resolution number HM/2019/98).

91.     Recommending that the Governing Body sets the targeted rates for the establishment of the Central Park Henderson BID programme and targeted rate operated by the CPHBA, means the new BID programme will be funded from targeted rates on commercial properties located within their BID area, and provide services in accordance with their members’ priorities as stated in their BID programme plan.

92.     The local board’s views will be expressed by its appointed representative on the board (executive committee) of the CPHBA. This liaison board member attends BID board meetings to ensure there is a direct link between the council and the operation of the BID programme.

93.     Henderson-Massey Local Board has previously supported BID programmes, as it brings together local businesses to invest collectively in improvements that enhance the local business environment, such as improved security for business centres. A BID can also advocate to, and collaborate with, the council on behalf of local businesses.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

94.     Approving the new BID programme will have no adverse effects on, or particular benefits to the Māori population.

95.     At the 2018 Census, Māori make up more than 17.2% of the population living in the Henderson-Massey Local Board area, compared to 11.5% of AucklandIndividual business associations may, through operating their BID programme, identify opportunities for niche support or development of any Māori business sector in their role.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

96.     There are no financial implications for the local board. Targeted rates for BID-operating business associations are raised directly from commercial ratepayers in the BID area and used by the business association for improvements within that area. The council’s financial role is to collect the BID targeted rates and pass them directly to the association every quarter.

97.     The targeted rate is payable by the owners of the commercial properties within the geographic area of the individual BID programme.  In practice, this cost is often passed on to the business owners who occupy these properties.  This cost may be harder to meet at a time when businesses are financially impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic.  Council may be considering extending the rates postponement policy to commercial property owners and consulting on such an extension as part of the 2020/2021 emergency budget.  If approved, this would help mitigate impact of the targeted rate on ratepayers who are struggling financially.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

98.     There are no direct financial risks to the local board or council that could result from this recommendation to endorse the BID targeted rate for CPHBA.

99.     The governance and operation of the CPHBA BID programme will be subject to the BID Policy. The annual requirements of the BID Policy are intended to help minimise the potential for BIDs to misuse funds, by requiring each BID to plan for the intended use of funds, report on its activities to its members and to have its account audited.

100.   The council staff will regularly monitor compliance with the BID Policy and provide an annual report to the local board as part of an active risk management programme to minimise inappropriate use of funds.

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

101.   If the board supports this report, it will recommend to the Governing Body that it set the targeted rate at the lesser amount of $400,000 for the 2020/2021 financial year following further consultation as part of the emergency budget process.

102.   Any feedback received as part of the emergency budget consultation process will be considered by the Governing Body before the decision to set the targeted rate.

103.   After the Annual Budget is approved, Auckland Council collects the targeted rate funds and distributes them in quarterly BID grant payments, effective from 1 July 2020.  This would include the payment of a grant to the CPHBA if this proposal is approved. This allows the CPHBA to implement programmes that improve the local business environment and support businesses to recover from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Horopaki

Context

4.       This report addresses the current PTS service and funding agreements which require two accountability reports within the financial year to be received by the Local Board.

5.       Differentiating between PTS service and funding agreements:

·     The PTS service agreements are contracts which fund the PTS Community Trusts (Community Waitakere, Te Ukaipo, Mclaren Park and Henderson South (MPHS) and Ecomatters) to carry out environmental restoration and maintenance services with volunteers and community groups within the PTS catchment. Service agreement contract deliverables include restoring and maintaining the green assets to specified standards, working towards a self-sustaining natural environment, supporting the natural regeneration/maturation of PTS area ecosystems and enhancing catchment areas through enrichment.

 

·     The PTS funding agreements are contracts which fund the PTS Community Trusts to provide environmental education mentors and educational programmes. Funding agreement contract deliverables include but are not limited to: teaching and building relationships with local groups, connecting local people with their natural environment, environmental awareness and engagement activities, imparting environmental restoration skills, connecting community to green restoration and enhancement, promoting environmental best practices, reducing environmental impact and encouraging environmental innovation; while providing added value to the Service Agreement outcomes.

 

6.       The PTS Strategic Review and Plan is a separate process. The PTS Strategic Review was received by the Henderson-Massey Local Board on Thursday 3 December 2019.

7.       PTS activities align to the Henderson-Massey Local Board Plan 2017-2020:

·     Outcome 1: A network of vibrant and loved urban neighbourhoods.

·     Outcome 3: Communities know each other and work together on common interests.

·     Outcome 4: Community facilities are vibrant and welcoming places at the heart of our communities.

·     Outcome 5: It is easy to get around without a car.

·     Outcome 6: Natural spaces are valued and restored.

8.       PTS aligns with many Auckland Council strategies that consider climate impact including  The Auckland Plan, Parks and Open Space Strategic Action Plan 2013, Urban Ngahere (Forest) Strategy, Auckland Regional Pest Management Strategy, Auckland Council’s Indigenous Biodiversity Strategy, Pest Free Auckland, Auckland Council Regional Pest Management Plan and Indigenous Biodiversity Strategy.

Analysis and advice

9.       Attachment A displays PTS Community Trusts performance against service and funding agreement contract deliverables.

10.     PTS Community Trusts in the Henderson-Massey Local Board area have met the contractual obligations and deliverables of the PTS service and funding agreements.

11.     Parks, Sport and Recreation are satisfied with the Community Trusts audit performance results (restoration audit, health and safety audit) and the overall performance against contract deliverables.

12.     The KPI’s that are not met are rectified on-site at the time of the audit – or flagged as follow up items to Parks, Sport and Recreation staff and the Community Trusts.

13.     The performances of the PTS Community Trusts in Attachment A are on-par with PTS statistics and audit performance from previous years.

14.     Statistics and audit performance percentages achieved in Attachment A are the result of skilled, thorough and passionate PTS staff appointed by the Community Trusts.

15.     PTS outcomes share similarities with a number of other regional restoration projects, outlined in Attachment A.

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi

Climate impact statement

16.     PTS activities contribute to:

·    Cleaner air and water i.e. cooler streams through planting and carbon sequestration and oxygen through trees.

·         Healthier communities i.e. people connected to their whenua and protecting it.

·         Better housing choice and places to live, helping prepare the catchment for the impacts of climate change i.e. flooded housing removed.

·         More access to sustainable transport methods i.e. walkways and cycleways, reducing carbon emissions.

Council group impacts and views

17.     PTS activities have a positive impact on neighbouring areas and sites currently maintained by Community Facilities. Pest Plants in PTS areas are maintained to a high standard -resulting in the prevention of spread into neighbouring Community Facilities sites.

18.     PTS activities have a positive impact on Auckland Transport (AT) owned and managed infrastructure - helping to improve connectivity and reduce car travel. An example of this is the shared paths which extend through PTS areas, forming a spine for walking and cycling in Henderson and Glen Eden. Auckland Transport is planning to augment this network with further routes. 

19.     PTS activities have a positive impact on Panuku Development’s Unlock Henderson. The Twin Streams are recognised in the Unlock Henderson vision as important ecological and amenity corridors. PTS has helped to improve ecological corridors and local amenity as a result of replanted urban stream margins.

20.     PTS activities have a positive impact on Parks, Sport and Recreation - as maintenance and restorative works are carried out on boundaries shared with Park spaces. PTS has helped to improve and provide recreational/fitness and nature experience opportunities.                                              

21.     PTS activities have a positive impact on Healthy Waters and Infrastructure and Environmental Services. Community Trusts work with Healthy Waters to carry out freshwater fish surveys and stream monitoring. PTS restoration planting has mitigated flood risk in PTS sites and increased stream ecology.

22.     Biodiversity staff have been engaged by Community trusts in educational group activities such as bird watching.

23.     Council teams engaged directly by PTS service agreement and funding agreement contracts are Parks, Sport and Recreation, Local Board Services and Procurement Delivery. Engagement involves providing resources, mainly staff time, to PTS.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

24.     PTS has resulted in the naturalisation and maintenance of the streamside environments in the Huruhuru and Wai o Pareira creeks and tributaries.

25.     PTS has a reputation for integrating social and environmental outcomes.

26.     The Henderson-Massey Local Board has expressed strong interest in both the environmental and social outcomes of PTS.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

27.     Mana whenua involvement in PTS has included cultural heritage assessments of cycle and walkways, cultural advice provided in PTS partnership workshops, input to communications, promotional and educational materials, as well as guidance to contracted community organisations.

28.     The PTS trusts actively educate volunteers Māori plant-based knowledge. This includes maintenance of a pā harakeke and rongoā plantings.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

29.     The budget allocated to PTS sits outside of the decision-making allocation of the Henderson-Massey Local Board. Funding for the project is provided through Asset Based Services funds managed by Parks, Sport and Recreation.

30.     Parks, Sport and Recreation has received adequate evidence from the trusts that funding is being spent on contracted activities, summarized in Attachment A.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

31.     Risks to be mitigated in PTS activities are outlined in the independent health and safety (H/S) audit key performance indicator’s (KPI’s). PTS health and safety audit KPI’s include but are not limited to: Hazardous substances being stored in a safe manner, use of hazard risk registers, evidence of incidents or accidents being reported, machinery serviced and in good working order, evidence of protective equipment being used, site safety plans updated, trained experienced and certified personnel using hazardous substances and communication systems or devices are accessible in case of emergency. Effective management of the above KPI’s reduces risks to health and safety of staff and public.

32.     Environmental risks to be mitigated in PTS sites are outlined in the independent restoration audit KPI’s. PTS restoration audit KPI’s in relation to pest plant control include but are not limited to: eradication of total control weed species, containment and surveillance weed species controlled where possible, pest plant re-entry into catchments minimised through control of all seedlings, seeds and fruiting bodies removed before maturation and no damage caused to non-pest plants. PTS restoration KPI’s in relation to environmental/vegetation maintenance include but are not limited to: vegetation cutback from footpaths, tracks and cycleways, vegetation does not impede pedestrians or mowing operations, green-waste mulched if possible, pruning undertaken to industry best standards and no small/old pieces of litter in PTS sites. Effective management of the above KPI’s reduces environmental risks and degradation of PTS sites.

33.     Risks are mitigated by independent auditors contracted to carry out H/S and restoration audits three times per trust in the financial year.

34.     Experienced PTS staff from the Community Trusts take necessary precautionary measures such as H/S briefs before works with volunteers or community groups commence.

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

35.     PTS will continue accountability reporting to the Local board twice per financial year, with the next PTS year-end accountability report due end September 2020.

Horopaki

Context

6.       The local board allocates grants to groups and organisations delivering projects, activities and services that benefit Aucklanders and contribute to the vision of being a world class city.

7.       Auckland Council Community Grants Policy supports each local board to adopt a grants programme.

8.       The local board grants programme sets out:

·     local board priorities

·     lower priorities for funding

·     exclusions

·     grant types, the number of grant rounds and when these will open and close

·     any additional accountability requirements.

 

9.       The Henderson-Massey Local Board adopted the Henderson-Massey Local Board Community Grants Programme 2019/2020 on 27 March 2019 (Attachment A). The document sets application guidelines for contestable grants.

10.     The community grant programmes have been extensively advertised through the council grants webpage, local board webpages, local board e-newsletters, Facebook pages, council publications, radio, and community networks.

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu

Analysis and advice

11.     The aim of the local board grant programme is to deliver projects and activities which align with the outcomes identified in the local board plan. All applications have been assessed utilising the Community Grants Policy and the local board grant programme criteria. The eligibility of each application is identified in the report recommendations.

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi

Climate impact statement

12.     The Local Board Grants Programme aims to respond to Auckland Council’s commitment to address climate change by providing grants to individuals and groups for projects that support and enable community climate action. Community climate action involves reducing or responding to climate change by local residents in a locally relevant way. Local board grants can contribute to expanding climate action by supporting projects that reduce carbon emissions and increase community resilience to climate impacts. Examples of projects include local food production and food waste reduction; increasing access to single-occupancy transport options; home energy efficiency and community renewable energy generation; local tree planting and streamside revegetation; and educating about sustainable lifestyle choices that reduce carbon footprints.

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

13.     Based on the main focus of an application, a subject matter expert from the relevant department will provide input and advice. The main focus of an application is identified as arts, community, events, sport and recreation, environment or heritage.

14.     The grants programme has no identified impacts on council-controlled organisations and therefore their views are not required.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

15.     Local boards are responsible for the decision-making and allocation of local board community grants.  The Henderson-Massey Local Board is required to fund, part-fund or decline these grant applications in accordance with its priorities identified in the local board grant programme.

16.     The local board is requested to note that section 48 of the Community Grants Policy states “We will also provide feedback to unsuccessful grant applicants about why they have been declined, so they will know what they can do to increase their chances of success next time”.

17.     A summary of each application received through Henderson-Massey Local Grants Round Two 2019/2020 (Attachment B), and Multiboard Grants Round Two 2019/2020 (Attachment C) is provided.

Our therapy team works hard to create a non-judgmental atmosphere free from the stresses of able-ism and prejudice. They approach movement-making co-creatively, inviting attendees to play an active role in the development of the movement, offering an opportunity to gain a sense of mastery, integrate their whole self, and to develop further social awareness and skills to relate to, and communicate with, others in their family and the wider community.

Dance 4 Us West is a therapeutic programme for adults and young adults with special needs and disabilities. This population faces considerable stigma from the 'neurotypical' public every day, so we work hard to create a safe, open space where attendees are not only accepted, but are valued and celebrated just as they are.Dance 4 Us West is a therapeutic programme for adults and young adults with special needs and disabilities. This population faces considerable stigma from the 'neurotypical' public every day, so we work hard to create a safe, open space where attendees are not only accepted, but are valued and celebrated just as they are. By improving social skills and communicative ability, we're empowering participants to be able to more effectively communicate outside the session, in their local community, which helps to break down negative stereotypes about people with disabilities.

Project: Edith Amituanai Documentary

Location:

Waitakere College

Summary:

We are producing a short documentary on how consent plays into the work of Henderson-Massey based photographer Edith Amituanai when photographing rangatahi. We will be following her current project with the year 10 art class at Waitakere College, teaching and empowering the students to photograph themselves and each other in the masks they are making. This is a collaborative documentary with the students at Waitakere College, encouraging them to use our cameras in talking about their relationship with Edith and recording the process of making their masks. We want the audience to understand the kaupapa behind Edith's work and how deeply she cares about her community.

Expertise:

Gabriella, our producer, works as the Youth Coordinator for a community organisation (Auckland Women's Centre) and has successfully delivered grant-supported work focussed on empowering rangatahi. This included organising multiple hui to empower students to develop leadership in the space of Mana Wāhine/Gender Equity, funded by the Women's Fund.
 
Ruby Harris, our director, is an experienced a filmmaker and photographer. She has previously directed music videos, short documentaries, pitched pieces to Checkpoint and RNZ and helped with filmmaking workshops for kids. This year she wrote, produced and directed a short film called ‘Triple Scoop’ which has now been entered into international film festivals.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

This is a project focussed on celebrating the creative work of the Henderson Massey community, particularly that of local artist Edith Amituanai and the Year 10 photography class at Waitakere College. We aim to depict Edith as the incredible community figure she is; someone who has achieved significant national and international acclaim for her work and remains so dedicated to empowering our community's rangatahi. In the film we will be including a selection of her photographs which give voice to the community. We also aim to depict the students, who we have had the privilege of getting to know and work with over the past month, with the humour, charm and kindness they have shown to us. Our community deserves to be celebrated and even in exploring the challenges of 'consent' as a theme, our overall purpose is to shine a light on the incredible people and initiatives that exist within Henderson-Massey.
 
This short documentary is also being made for the Henderson Massey community. We intend to screen our film to the Waitakere School community/local community first and foremost before sharing it with wider national/international audiences. We are also working closely with Waitakere College in the post-production of our film.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      arts, events and cultural activities reflect our many heritages

 

This project supports the selected priority in a variety of ways. Firstly, it is a locally produced work of art; a short documentary made in Henderson-Massey by a Henderson-Massey based producer. The film aims to celebrate the creative work of photographer Edith Amituanai (who is also based in the local board region) and the art she is producing with a Year 10 photography class at Waitakere College. In doing so, we hope to reflect and express the diversity and character of our Henderson-Massey rangatahi and generate a sense of pride and belonging in our community.

Legal status:

Incorporated Society, Charitable Trust

Activity focus:

Arts and culture

Conflicts of interest:

None identified

Project: Adult music therapy group sessions

Location:

Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre, 5 Carlton Gore Road, Grafton

Summary:

We have been working with two groups of adults from the Agape Home Care Trust in Glendene since 2015. Each week these two groups come together to create music based on their individual and group interests, singing a variety of songs that include solo, duets, and group singing while also playing their preferred instruments. Music therapy is a place where they can share their interests and explore different concepts that come up in discussions about songs, where participants can express their fears, frustrations, and emotions and to be themselves all with the support of each other. In order to continue delivering this service we have been subsidising their costs, and are seeking funding to make up the shortfall.

Expertise:

As New Zealand’s only music therapy Centre we have, over our 17 years, changed thousands of lives through music. In addition to the work at our Centre and satellite locations, we provide individual and group music therapy services to a large number of schools and disability agencies around Auckland for which we consistently receive positive feedback. All of our music therapists are qualified to at least degree level and are recognised professionals by Music Therapy NZ. They bring with them a wealth of experience in the field, not just in New Zealand but many from overseas. This experience is shared at regular team meetings and training events to not only develop our team but benefit our clients and their communities.

We advertise our programmes through our website, social media and community partnerships.  We are privileged to also have the support of Pead PR who offer us Pro Bono PR services. We distribute regular newsletters to our families and stakeholders with information on news and events, and funders for any programmes are always acknowledged. Additionally we work with a large number of schools and disability organisations who are happy to share information about our services.  We have a Thank You wall at our Centre where logos of our supporters are proudly displayed for all to see. We would welcome the opportunity for a local board member to visit the Centre and see first-hand the benefits of the work we do.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Due to their physical, cognitive and behavioural challenges, the vast majority of our clients cannot participate in community activities such as sport, music lessons, drama and art.  Music therapy provides them with the chance to express themselves, develop independence, engage with their community and others, and develop meaningful relationships.  Such skills and developments continue outside of these weekly sessions, meaning the benefit of the work we do also impacts our client’s whanau and the wider communities in which they live. 
 
In our work with adults from the Agape Home Care Trust, these clients develop independence, positive friendships, and express themselves in a safe and supportive environment. Over the past four years we have worked with several different groups of adults from this programme and have seen all participants flourish with regard to improved teamwork, self-expression, sharing and much more. Such skills and developments continue outside of these weekly sessions, meaning the benefits of the work we do also impacts our client’s whanau and the wider communities in which they live. This truly is a community getting to know each other and working together on common interests, in an arts environment that reflects their heritage.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      diversity and difference is embraced and valued

 

Here at the Raukatauri Music Therapy Centre, community and arts are at our very core. Our clients come from a diverse backgrounds and present a wide range of special needs. In their music therapy sessions they have the opportunity to interact and communicate musically, expressing themselves in whatever way they can - using their body, voice or musical instruments. Our therapists improvise with them, working together musically, learning to communicate not just with each other but with the world around them. This chance to participate with others helps our clients connect, to feel valued and less isolated. Furthermore it gives them a sense of belonging, and enables them to become part of the wider community at large.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori focus - tikanga (practises), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

We offer a meaningful Tikanga Māori approach to music therapy practice which is based on mana/respect for all peoples and is at the root of our founding, our name and our identity. In their sessions our music therapists incorporate waiata and taonga pūoro in order to bring a rich and meaningful bicultural approach to the work. Our therapists also incorporate the principals of the Māori health model Te Whare Tapa Whā into their goal setting with whānau and engage in ongoing professional development around Tikanga Māori, the Māori relationship between music and healing, and the use of te reo. This approach is essential in enabling many of our clients to experience the healing and grounding force of their heritage.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - All our services are designed for individuals with disabilities.  Our clients have a range of special needs, including cerebral palsy, autism, Down syndrome, traumatic brain injuries, dementia and mental health disorders.  Whatever a client’s need or ability, they are able to participate in our service. For those clients in wheelchairs, our Centre is fully accessible, but our provisions go far beyond that.  We have specially designed and made instruments that allow even those with the smallest range of movement to make music, and have recently invested in a number of technologies that make the smallest movement sound like a symphony.  Our staff specialize in working with people with disabilities, creating a warm, welcoming and inclusive environment for all.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$3387.00

Requesting grant for:

We moved the provision of this service to our Centre four years ago, after the cost for Church the Trust was using became prohibitive. With the benefits of our service continuing after the weekly music therapy sessions it is the local community in Glendene that truly receives the value of our services. The Agape Home Care Trust pays a weekly fee for their music therapy sessions, but this is heavily subsidised, and we are seeking funding for the shortfall to continue to provide this service. Without this funding we may not be able to continue to work with these clients.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We would look to apply to other funders, but a lack of financial support may prevent the programme from proceeding in the future.

Cost of participation:

Yes, fees of $145 including GST are paid each week, which is a heavily subsidised fee for the two 45 minute sessions each week.

·      arts, events and cultural activities reflect our many heritages

 

As a new Chinese Association, we have developed nearly 300 members in just one year. By organizing various activities and celebrations of traditional Chinese festivals, the Chinese people living in Auckland especially Henderson-Massey area found their hometown feeling, and received warm response and welcome from members. In particular, the celebrations of the Dragon Boat Festival and Mid-Autumn Festival in past year have achieved good results. As a member of  many different ethnic communities and multiculturalism, we particularly hope that the Chinese traditional culture which have been passed down for thousands of years could be  introduced to different communities in Auckland. As the Chinese Lantern Festival has gained broader recognition and be celebrated every year, we hope that through our efforts and the support of Auckland City Council, Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival will be introduced to people of different ethnic community living in Auckland to share the culture and happiness. Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival is on Oct. 4 for this year. Our project plans to hold Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival activities on 4th Oct. 2020, the activities include entertainment, Tai Chi performance, special traditional food for the festival and work shop. The entertainment are Chinese dance, Chinese traditional music instrument, Dragon dance, etc. The work shop will teach how to make traditional Moon-cake. We believe that our project will support Henderson-Massey Local Board to achieve the priority of neighborhood centres foster a sense of identity andN/A place, to help hundreds and thousands of Chinese migrant feel that Henderson and Massey are their hometown, plus to share the culture to other ethnic group live in this area.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Access to health care is a significant factor in the well-being and well-fare of people. Poverty is exasperated by poor health and poor education. New Zealand has one of the highest prevalence's of asthma in the world. Poorly managed asthma reduces a child'd ability to learn, an individual's ability to participate in physical activity and an adults ability to contribute fully to society. People will be more active & parents will not need to keep their kids home or out of sport because of poorly managed asthma. Healthy behaviors lead to lower health risk, and this will lead to less chronic disease. With less chronic disease the country will have less health-costs.Community will have a better understanding of their asthma/COPD and its management. 
With our education & support improve asthma/COPD management for Maori and Pacific People and those in more deprived areas. 
A better understanding of asthma and its management & keeping people safe, Keeping kids in school & active. Keeping adults well and enable them to be gainfully employed. Improved health and asthma management for Maori and Pacifica and those in more deprived areas. Decrease in hospital admissions/after hour visits. Easing of financial pressure on our health system.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      people are more active

 

Regular exercise is a part of  healthy lifestyle for the people with Asthma &  Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Social support is valuable for  the people coping with COPD  & Asthma.  Life stresses from COPD & Asthma, including reduced mobility and embarrassment and fear of symptoms, can significantly disrupt social relationships, increase isolation, and place a burden on social networks and healthcare providers. The people with Asthma or COPD might feel like it is not safe, or even possible to exercise, but the right amount of exercise or activity has many benefits for these people in the community. Education & Support with our Asthma Nurse Educators keep the people with Asthma or COPD  community active.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori led - either a Māori organisation that is applying or Māori directed (came about as a request from Māori).

Maori and Pacific People in New Zealand are disproportionately affected by asthma or COPD, but the level of care they receive does not match this morbidity. Education helps to reduce disparities and needs to be ongoing component of asthma or COPD care. To be  effective, asthma or COPD education needs to be matched to the stage of asthma health literacy of the patient and their whanau. Patients with asthma of COPD who are supported by a collaborative Mobile Asthma Nurse Educator team do experience better health outcomes. Regular follow up of all patients with Asthma or COPD ensure that Maori and Pacific patients are receiving appropriate treatment and that any gaps in care can be rapidly redressed.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our Mobile Asthma Nurse Educators home visits cover people with disabilities. Not only they visit them; we even book interpreters for appointments if there is a need. Once a month the COPD support group have their meeting at our premises which have parking, wheel chairs, scooter access, and a rest room for the people with disabilities.

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

Smoking is the leading cause of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). Smoking aggravates Asthma. Our Mobile Asthma Nurse Educators remind our community that smoking or vaping and breathing in other people's smoke makes asthma COPD worse; over the long term by causing permanent damage to the lungs. It can also trigger asthma symptoms or even an asthma flare up in the short term. Our in house data sh

Additional information to support the application:

Health education about asthma is a need for school students & the community. This require inter-disciplinary approach from schools & the community. It is vital that school teachers's knowledge be improved and continuously updated that it can reflect in students' knowledge and attitudes too. On average 80 people die from Asthma in New Zealand. Maori, Pacific peoples and low-income families are more than 3 time more likely to be hospitalized for asthma.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

A hygienic and clean environment - as a very high traffic area and where food is eaten and served the dining
room constantly has food and drink spilled on it. Carpet soaks up liquids and food gets smooched underfoot
leaving it ingrained with food and drink. Cleaning is done as best as it can be but inevitably there are going to
be stains (And are stains). With a vinyl like floor it will provide an easy clean surface which will be much more
hygienic for all that use that space.
Fully functioning space – With over 15,000 people visiting us each year this is a multi-functional space. For
things such as; eating, activities, functions, training sessions, camp concerts and more. With the flooring we
are looking at, which is in a lot of schools, it will help keep the space looking great while still providing the
warmth it needs and durability for its different uses.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      people are more active

 

In this technology age we think it is important that children and youth get the opportunity to be active and enjoy the outdoors. At camp we provide a space where they can try new things, face fears and spend time forming friendships through physical activities.
Our project helps with making sure our facility provides a quality service that works for the clients and helps them have the best time possible, maximizing there time on activities.

Project: Helpline services for the youth of Henderson-Massey

Location:

13 Maidstone Street, Grey Lynn, auckland

Summary:

We request funding of $5,000 as a contribution to the Henderson-Massey share of $30,724 of the annual cost of $444,624 in Auckland for Helpline services in support of young people in need in the Henderson-Massey Local Board area. 
The significant costs of the Helpline include Volunteer training, triage support, supervision and the telecommunications costs of operating the voice and text services.
After completing their 5 stage training pathway they advance to being solo counsellors where they receive triage support and supervision. Triage staff support, mentor and supervise the volunteers, and have responsibility for ensuring the safety of young people who contact us. Supervision is an essential process whereby volunteer counsellors receive regular support, training and mentoring from more experienced supervisors.

Expertise:

Youthline has been supporting young people in need through our Helpline for 50 years and we have serious expertise in providing this support.
We have built up considerable knowledge and experience over this period such that we are recognised as the premier support service for young people in need. Our 250 helpline volunteer counsellors receive intensive training and close supervision.
In an evaluation of the Helpline in 2019, 84.9% of respondents felt helped by the service with 90.3% being satisfied or very satisfied. 61.7% had contacted the Helpline about mental health related issues.
“Honestly this is the best support I've ever received in my life”.
“It was amazing talking to Youthline. It made me feel worth something to the world”.

We will publicly acknowledge the local board’s contribution in the Youthline Annual Report, on our website, in social media and on our promotional material. We would also like to invite local board members to visit our Helpline hub located at the Youthline Youth Development and Community Centre in Grey Lynn.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

For many of the vulnerable young people we work with the first contact point with us is through the Helpline and our volunteer counsellors. Many of the young people are vulnerable – they are disadvantaged, disillusioned and disengaged.
Our Helpline is staffed by over 250 volunteer counsellors and last year they processed over 150,000 texts, calls and emails from young people in need. They are only able to do this vital work because they receive comprehensive training and are supported by triage staff and receive essential supervision.   
Triage staff provide ongoing clinical support. They provide essential clinical support for our volunteers to ensure quality service provision covering counselling, early intervention, education), training, health promotion activities (including information and seminars) and mentoring.
Supervision is an essential process whereby volunteer counsellors receive regular (monthly) support, training and mentoring from more experienced supervisors. 
The vital role played by Triage staff ensures that our volunteers provide the best and clinically sound support for young people in need. The community benefits significantly when we turn around these vulnerable young people so they become motivated and inspire to reach theor full potential and help build a resilient community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      people know each other and feel connected in their neighbourhoods

 

Young people in need who contact Youthline through our Helpline often feel lonely, alone, disengaged and desperate. They often have a reduced sense of belonging to family, school or community.
“I felt super alone and I finally found the courage to reach out. When I felt this, only Youthline gave me full support.”
Youthline supports these young people, acknowledges their issues and is inclusive with a strengths-based, person-centred approach. 
“The counsellor who talked to me is by far the best person I’ve ever talked to. They have a talent where they know exactly what to say, thank you so much!”
Youthline helpline staff respond to situations of low to high and imminent risk across all mediums of contact, providing a continuum of support and linking service users with other agencies in their own communities. Utilising and promoting Youthline's strengths-based, wrap around approach, Youthline staff are responsible for the quality assessment and management of clients (young people and their families), including those with high and complex needs.
Youthline services equip youth with skills and insights on how to build self-esteem and improve mental-health, how to actively problem-solve, recover from setbacks and build resilience. Counsellors link them with local support services to assist their ongoing development. Through their improved emotional and self-management skills young people are less likely to fall into helplessness, depression, addictive behaviours, dangerous relationships and unemployment.
“The person I spoke to understood me and the things I was worried about, and they were very supportive. I felt like they understood me emotionally and they validated me, and they also told me about other services that I might find useful.”
For many, the Helpline provides a doorway to a range of personal development and life skills programmes offered by Youthline including personal development, job skills (e.g. barista training, CV writing and job applications) and leaner licence training. All designed to better equip young people to be active and productive members of their communities. 
We know that when young people are engaged in community activities, linked with whanau, and given the opportunity to participate feel that they are part of something and encouraged to reach their potential, that risk taking behaviour is reduced.  Youthline works inclusively with youth, from those young people who are most vulnerable to youth leaders who are championing change.  Our clinical support workers counsel/mentor young people identified as needing one on one support to encourage and inspire them.  They aim to understand the strengths and weaknesses of each young person, then identify goals and milestones and develop a plan for successful implementation and progression. By walking beside a young person and providing positive role models Youthline aims to see every young person become a positive contributor to society with a strong sense of belonging to their local community.

For counselling, 10% of young people presenting are Maori which is proportionally low. 
 
All of our staff and volunteers are trained on the Treaty of Waitangi. Maori models of health such as Te Whare Tapa Wha inform our work with targets groups of rangatahi Maori. Youthline has a Maori working group (Nga Whetu Poutama) to guide Youthline to increase the organisation’s cultural capacity and inform the work that we do.

We would not amend our plan per se, rather we would continue being extremely proactive in applying for funding from a wide range of funders.

We receive contract income from the MSD/Oranga Tamariki of $90,000 per year. We have to fundraise the balance of $702,914. This is why your support is so vital.

Additional information to support the application:

We are very appreciative of the previous support of the local board and would be very grateful if the board was able to contribute to the operating costs of our free, 24/7 crisis Helpline which is supporting young people in need in the Henderson-Massey area. We are providing a vital service to young people in need of support. We are the only youth-oriented organisation providing this service in your area. There is nowhere else for these young people to turn to.

Legal status:

Charitable Trust

Activity focus:

Community

Conflicts of interest:

None identified

Project: Hidden in Plain Sight

Location:

Various locations suitable to conduct trainings/workshops in the Henderson-Massey Local Board

Summary:

Through this project, ECPAT Child Alert aims to raise awareness of the current issues surrounding CSEC in the NZ context including risk factors and vulnerabilities, various types of exploitation of children, recruitment, how exploitation affects those involved, what needs to be done to help to combat this issue, among other topics. The project will primarily focus on capacity building of community agencies already working with at-risk and vulnerable youth. International evidence demonstrates that education and awareness raising (CSEC) is an effective means to prevent exploitation from occuring.

Expertise:

ECPAT Child Alert continuously provides training and outreach projects to community organisations, law enforcement, educational facilities, and the general public and employees individuals with backgrounds in human rights, child rights, social work, human trafficking, sexual violence, and family violence who have experience in delivering trainings relevant to ECPAT Child Alert's strategic plan.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

ECPAT acknowledges work that is already being done with at risk populations across Auckland and would want to contribute towards further capacity building. This project will enable professionals working with at risk populations become skilled at being able to identify accumulative risk factors that can (or has already led to) sexual exploitation and enable early intervention to prevent sexual exploitation. In cases where young people are already selling sex for survival, the participants will be equipped to advocate on their behalf and be informed of the supports available.
 
Issues around increasing numbers of homeless people, synthetic drug use, and
online abuse are issues interrelated to the sexual exploitation of children. Anecdotal evidence (from police and community social workers) and research shows that there are an increasing number young people being exploited for sexual purposes in Auckland.These activities can often go unnoticed, especially in high density areas. Revenge porn is increasing across most high schools and universities, and areas with high university population should be included in outreach, campaigning and training.
 
In addition, recent research shows a lack of skills and knowledge about commercial exploitation among professionals working with youth who are at risk of being exploited in Auckland.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

 

ECPAT Child Alert continues to expand the breadth of training and the workshops provided to frontline workers and professionals and the public. Through this training, we are continually increasing the knowledge and skill of workers/professionals in how to respond to the commercial exploitation of children in New Zealand, from introductory training on commercial exploitation to more focussed strategies on how to identify, intervene, and support victims and survivors. Increased knowledge and skill among workers/professionals and the public will assist in identifying risk factors and vulnerabilities of children and youth to help prevent exploitation and will further provide tools to assist in the intervention and rehabilitation processes.

Project: Blue Light Rainbows End Funday

Location:

Rainbows End Fun Park, 2 Clist Crescent, Manukau, Auckland

Summary:

For the past 25+ years Blue Light has taken 2000 young people to Rainbows End each year. These youth are a mix of disadvantaged and under-privileged young people as well as young people providing leadership and service to their primary or intermediate
school through roles such as road patrollers, peer mediators and school counsellors. Youth participation at this event helps to build positive relationships between police, young people, their whanau and community by having them all interacting in an iconic Auckland
recreational environment. Blue Light community volunteers and local Police members organise ticket distribution, consent, transport, food, drink and full supervision at the Fundays removing the barriers to participation of cost and transport for Auckland students
from low decile schools.

Expertise:

Blue Light has been delivering youth programmes and activities at both a local level and
at a national level in the New Zealand community for over 35 years. The Rainbows End
Fundays have been successfully delivered by Blue Light for over the past 25 years.

Promotion:

The Henderson Massey local board will be acknowledged through press releases and social media recognition. Schools and community organisations who refer students are made aware of who has funded their specific schools tickets and they make ticket recipients and whanau aware of who has made their attendance at this event possible. Local Blue Light branches in the Henderson Massey local board area also communicate via their social media channels and relationships in the community the local board that has made the participation of youth from their area to the Rainbows End Fundays possible.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Community benefits include:
- Breaks down barriers and stereotypes between different sections of the community and the police e.g. 'Youth at Risk and Police'
- Allows for diverse groups of the community e.g. ethnicity and socio-economic status, engaging them together in a fun, positive and iconic Auckland recreational activity.
- Rewards those young people who have donated their time to their schools and communities
- Removes the barriers of participation to an iconic Auckland recreational activity for youth (notably those of cost and transport) by providing free tickets, transport, supervision, food, drink and organising consent for chosen youth from low decile schools and lower socioeconomic areas of Henderson-Massey Local Board area.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      diversity and difference is embraced and valued

 

Each year Blue Light invites a mix of disadvantaged and under-privileged young people as well as young people who are currently providing leadership and service in their community or school through roles such as road patrollers, peer mediators and school counsellors to be part of the Blue Light Rainbows End Funday. Youth attendance at this event provides an opportunity to build positive relationships between police, Blue Light volunteers, young people, their whanau and the community by having them all interacting in an iconic Auckland recreational activity, removing barriers of participation (cost, transport). The bringing together of youth from across Auckland allows for the celebration of Auckland's diverse and distinctive communities in a fun positive environment whilst building positive relationships between the police, young people, their whanau and the community.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

The event will go ahead, however the number of disadvantaged and at risk youth, and youth in leadership positions at schools would be dramatically decreased. This constrains the outcomes and benefits the event can provide.

Project: Te Atatu Friendship Centre

Location:

Cnr Waipuna and Beach Rds, Te Atatu

Summary:

Communicare’s Te Atatu Friendship Centre is open once a week during term times. It is our aim that vulnerable older people who attend the centre will be able to avoid the issues of loneliness and social isolation that can have such a detrimental effect on their health and wellbeing. Members are encouraged to join in games and activities, are provided with healthy refreshments and can simply make friends and benefit from the regular contact with others.

Expertise:

Communicare has been in operation for over 60 years - testament to the quality of our service and indicative of the ongoing need for it. Our Te Atatu centre is one of 21 centres that we run across Auckland. Despite the proliferation of social media, face-to-face contact, especially among the elderly, continues to be the best method of communication to combat the issues of loneliness and social isolation.

Promotion:

Communicare is constantly striving to gain publicity for its services and friendship centres to ensure the benefits of our service are reaching those most in need. We promote our friendship centres through a variety of social media - our own website and Facebook page, Neighbourly and such. We provide information and brochures to all local medical centres and promote local centres and activity through local community papers and broadsheets. We are also promoted through websites and newsletters of allied healthcare providers. The support of the Henderson-Massey Local Board will be publicly acknowledged on our website, our Facebook page and in our quarterly newsletter. We always welcome local board members attendance at one of our weekly sessions.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The community benefits are ensuring that vulnerable older people in the community are having their needs met and are able to remain a part of that community enjoying the support of those around them. We firmly believe we are making a valuable contribution to the aims of Auckland Council in creating ‘age-friendly’ communities.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

 

All Communicare friendship centres are focussed on their local community. A major benefit of our service is the contribution it makes to creating ‘age-friendly’ communities. Our members can continue to live in their own homes longer and continue to be actively involved in that community. At the same time the wider community is encouraged to support and invited to participate in their local centre.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

Communicare's Maori Health Policy aims to ensure that our services are responsive to the needs of our Maori members. We observe Maori custodial rights, needs and interests and work hard to create an environment at our friendship centre that embraces and cares for the wellbeing of our tangata mauiui and their whanau. We endeavour to include te reo where possible particularly in our written communications.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - All our friendship centres, including of course Te Atatu, are wheelchair and walker accessible. Many of our vulnerable older members struggle with mobility issues and activities are organised to cater for and include all members with volunteers on hand to assist if and when necessary.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

We exist first and foremost to care for the health and wellbeing of the elderly and disabled. Creating a smoke-free environment is an essential element of this. Our venues, including Te Atatu, are all clearly designated smoke-free and all members, staff, volunteers and guests are apprised of this when they first attend a centre. While we serve morning tea and lunch we do not use disposable plates, cups or cutlery. Everything is washable and reuseable. Some of our craft activities involve recycling or upcycling and when the time does come for renewing and replacing old resources that are no longer of use we are careful to send as little as possible to the landfill. We have recently introduced a new exercise programme that our members are encouraged to participate in to the best of their ability.

Summary:

Food For Hunger is a social project initiated by MyFundAction and supported by Working Together Group. This project has been running continuously for 2 years where we strive to provide the needy with healthy and hearty meals on the weekly basis. Box of Happiness is a continuation of the Food For Hunger project, where we identify families who are in need and provide them with monthly supplies of food as a start. Once their basic needs (food, shelter and clothing) are catered for, we will closely analyse their condition and provide constant support in terms of education for their children, business mentoring to sustain their family and moral support through counselling sessions.

Project: 2020 Community Workshops

Location:

385 Don Buck Road, Massey 0614

Summary:

We are applying for $4,989.75 funding to support our community workshop programme. 
 
This funding will go towards purchasing workshop materials and resources such as soil preparations, tools, seeds, seedlings, irrigation fittings.
 
We would offer more workshops, greater diversity and depth to the content. We would engage specialist tutors, using the experience and knowledge of local people, develop new marketing materials to spread our reach so that we could tell more people about us and give a greater number of local people an opportunity to learn new skills, free to the public.

Expertise:

We are a dedicated group of expert volunteers who are passionate about gardening and promoting sustainable gardening principles. Through our partnership with Auckland Council and the people of Auckland, we have built the garden as it exists today from a bare section to one that is a productive and thriving community space. Our past projects, as well as previous and current success demonstrates that we can deliver this project to benefit the environment and community. Our expertise include experience board members, home gardeners, organic and holistic practitioners, as well as specific horticultural expertise e.g. grafting, pruning and composting.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

We want to see a greater number of families having the confidence and support to grow their own food.  We believe this strengthens community where families who are thriving is an expected outcome.
 
Benefits to the community are;
• An opportunity for locals to gain practical garden knowledge and learn how to grow food. • Access to 100 practical gardening, and small-scale sustainability, and related workshops per year.
• Supporting the needs of local early childhood centres.
• To divert and re-purpose approximately 70 cubic meters of waste otherwise destined for landfill.
• Volunteer labour contribution to 2,200+ hours per annum which has a dollarised value of approximately $50,000. 
• The creation of a beautiful outdoor space to be enjoyed by all for social, educational and community events and activities.
• Growing food for distribution through the local food sharing networks and supplementing the dinner tables of our workshop participants.
• We are told we bring immense joy.
“...this garden has been my life blood ever since I found it. The serenity, the joy of physical tasks bringing positive results to the community, the learning achieved and friendships gained are all priceless to me....” Linda Lewis, Volunteer

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

 

We have evolved to adopt the principles of this Māori whakatauakī-proverb: “Nā tō rourou, nā taku rourou, ka ora ai te iwi - with your food basket and my food basket the people will thrive”.  
 
We want to encourage a groundswell of local families growing their own food and adopting organic gardening principles and sustainable practices.  We offer free education on horticulture skills to our community and plan to hold over 100 practical and specialist workshops and events in 2020.
 
Adults and children are empowered to learn new skills together as we honour Te Tiriti o Waitangi and celebrate people’s uniqueness.
 
Our volunteers and workshop participants are local people who are empowered to create positive change in their neighbourhoods.  The garden benefits from over 2,200 hours our volunteers put in to help us achieve our goals.
 
Our operation supports the opportunity for individual action and behaviour change encouraged by the priority, encouraging Aucklanders to choose food that is local, seasonal and plant rich, reduce food waste and grow plants that contribute to reducing food poverty and carbon reduction in the atmosphere.

While we do not have official endorsement by our Māori community, the origins of this garden had (Waitakere WEA, Massey Plunket, Gardens 4 Health, MasseyMatters, EcoMatters Trust and local residents) six representative groups commit to this kaupapa.  We are connected to local churches, play centres, schools, at least 15 different community groups.  All of these connections have Māori in their demographics. 
We would like to develop a specific workshop around the maramataka which is the Māori lunar calendar to learn how we are able to adopt these principles into our gardening practices.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our garden is already supporting people in the community with disabilities and we have regular participation in our workshops form members of our community with disabilities.  We would like to increase our appeal to this group and are in discussions with an organisation called A Supported Life, a residential support service for people with intellectual disabilities.

We are a smoke-free organisation.
 
We benefit the environment by divert and re-purpose over 70 cubic meters of waste from local business that would otherwise be destined for landfill.  
 
We encourage people to eat healthy by growing healthy food options.  Our shared kai at the end of the workshops are based around what we can find to eat in our own garden, there is always a salad made from our own produce and participants often share foods and recipes from other cultures to encourage an interest in eating good, healthy foods.
 
Our workshops are very much aimed at encouraging physical activity, from digging and turning soil to shifting compost and mulch, we tailor our workshops to individual needs to ensure that all participants are working to their comfort and skill level.

Project: We Can Keep Safe programme for local ECE centre

Location:

Massey Kindergarten, 326A Don Buck Road, Massey 0614

Summary:

We seek funding to provide our We Can Keep Safe (WCKS) pre-school programme to an early childhood education (ECE) centre – Massey Kindergarten, collaborating with kindergarten staff. This programme teaches personal safety to three to five year olds and their families and educates parents/caregivers about sexual abuse and how to keep their children safe. The course consists of five modules and incorporates songs, games, drama and story-telling to teach its key messages.

Expertise:

HELP Auckland’s We Can Keep Safe pre-school programme has been delivered to early childhood education centres across the Auckland region for many years. It was previously funded via ACC. However, this year, the programme will no longer receive funding from June 30th onwards. The programme facilitator, Jude Bishop, has two decades of experience in delivering this programme to early childhood education centres.

Promotion:

If we are successful with our application, we will thank the Henderson-Massey Local Board in our annual report and in our direct e-mail newsletters to supporters. This helps our supporters recognise the efforts of generous donors who have contributed to the organisation’s ultimate goal to prevent sexual abuse from occurring in our communities.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our goal is to deliver around 50 WCKS courses to early childhood education (ECE) centres a year, with five modules for each course. Each ECE centre has between 20 to 30 children, with approximately 75 parents/caregivers, siblings and whanau, who would also benefit from the programme.
Our high-quality WCKS programme benefits families in the community by raising awareness of childhood personal safety and sexual abuse. It creates a starting point for open dialogue between parents/caregivers and their children about personal safety and staying safe from sexual abuse. The programme enables young children to build confidence and self-esteem, as well as teaching them the skills to successfully get adult help to stop abuse. We Can Keep Safe promotes personal safety as a component of health and wellbeing. This positively impacts children and youth in the community for the long-term, empowering them with the knowledge and skills to prevent and stay safe from sexual abuse. Parents and caregivers are also equipped with the knowledge to maintain an emotionally safe environment for their children and prevent sexual abuse. Ultimately, this will result in safer communities, by improving wellbeing and safety for families, and contributing towards a society that is safe from sexual abuse.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

 

The ‘We Can Keep Safe’ (WCKS) sexual abuse prevention programme engages children aged three to five years at early childhood education (ECE) centres in the local neighbourhood. Each centre may have an average of 26 children in attendance. The programme incorporates fun activities to teach key messages and skills focusing on personal safety that children can use now and as they grow older. It also provides the opportunity for parents and caregivers to attend an information evening beforehand. This gives them the knowledge of how to keep their children safe from sexual abuse and prepares them for conversations with their children about sexual abuse. This programme makes a difference by raising awareness and empowering youth and families in the long-term. This results in safer and stronger local communities, decreasing the likelihood of sexual abuse incidents occurring in communities.

integration. The workshop will be complimented by outreach sessions that can be requested by families in the Henderson/Massey area that need help supporting their autistic child. These face to face sessions provide individualised programmes to help the social
development of their child and empower the families to find their own coping strategies.

Expertise:

Children's Autism Foundation have nearly 20 years experience delivering high quality, evidence based services backed by leading scientific research.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

This project has been designed with the needs of the community in mind. Families dealing with autism spectrum disorder are at risk of social isolation and exclusion. This project will target wider community understanding of autism and will foster a more inclusive
community, for the benefit of all. The multi-faceted approach to service delivery provides local families with a greater choice to best meet their needs. Children/young people and their families that are supported and participate in their local community enjoy a greater
sense of security and belonging. The 'Hands on' workshop and outreach programmes bring families together from the community, fostering natural support systems and key relationships, further enhancing a sense of belonging. Evidence from previous workshops has shown that these new community friendships provide a strong network for families and can be a real positive source to draw upon in difficult times.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      diversity and difference is embraced and valued

 

CAF delivers services to children and families/whanau of children on the autism spectrum in the Henderson/Massey local board area. Children with neuro-diversity often feel different to other children. They struggle to feel a sense of belonging in their local community and can feel isolated at school, in local youth and sports groups and struggle to participate in a meaningful way. CAF specialises in embracing these diverse families and delivering sessions to those who engage with autistic children to support the integration of these children into the community. The 'Hands on' project will deliver a 2 hour community workshop in the Henderson/Massey local board area for families/whanau, professionals, volunteers, community organisations and the wider public. This workshop will help participants understand the nature and impact of autism and how to assist children with social skills, communication, sensory issues as well as strategies for behaviour and dealing with anxiety. The attendees will leave the workshop with a strong sense of how to celebrate the diversity and differences of the children they look after and how to better support them at home and in the local community. The funding will also support 20 outreach sessions in the Henderson- Massey community. Any family in the area who needs help coping with an autistic child can request a session with a CAF clinical professional. These sessions are delivered to families in their own homes or at CAF outreach clinics (if the family prefers this). The personalised sessions give families different strategies to deal with behavioural issues, important nutritional advice and sleep education. Families are taught how to develop their children's social and interpersonal skills so that the whole family can create a sense of belonging in their community. These sessions are fully tailored to the individual needs of each family/ whanau, focusing on practical, easy and achievable solutions to reduce the negative impact of autism and empower families. Outreach sessions are delivered free of charge with ongoing support offered by the CAF Clinical Team. Well supported families leads to a sense of well-being and acceptance in the local community.

Conflicts of interest:

Project: 4 R Project - Upcycling Workshops in Women's Refuge

Location:

Due to confidentiality, the location of the refuge cannot be disclosed. However Sustinnoworx- our Op shop and Up cycling workshop space is located at 455 Swanson Road, Ranui.

Summary:

Research indicates that women victims of domestic violence show significant cognitive changes, emotional numbing, and avoidance of interpersonal relationships. We are endeavoring to conduct free upskilling and upcycling workshops for women from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds living in our refuges. Items that can’t be sold will be used to craft new items (recycling) such as shopping bags, aprons, cushion covers, etc. to help reduce household waste. 
Our project charts pathways for unemployed or underemployed women to become entrepreneurs through our Home Business programme and will enable them to contribute to New Zealand’s eco-friendly cottage industry. Such trained women can sell the products they create at the workshops through our Sustinnoworx’ Op shops.

Expertise:

Shakti Community Council Inc. is a 24-year-old, MSD and MOJ accredited and approved organisation and is New Zealand's largest culturally specialist provider of social services to migrant and refugee communities. SETAC Ltd, (a member organisation of Shakti) which developed the Sustinnoworx Programme is NZQA accredited. 
Some of our service delivery and resource recovery initiatives through Sustinnoworx include:
•           2 re-sale sites with one of them being an upcycled goods site  
•           Onsite Job opportunities, trainings, workshops and volunteering options
•        We resell 50% of the products and 30% will be upcycled leaving 20% material that may go to landfill. With our reuse and recycling we reduced around 800 kilos to 1 tonne of landfill through household waste this year.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

We have developed engagement campaign to involve local communities including women survivors, University students such as Fashion design students from Auckland University of Technology, successful fashion designers, and local businesses in sustainable living practices and in helping the vulnerable members of our communities. 
We are in the process of signing a MOU with Auckland University of Technology whose Fashion design students will help design our up cycling products with the inputs from successful fashion designer. Fashion designer, Liz Mitchell who has come on board for designing Sustinnoworx up cycling clothes will also feature the work of our refuge women in both her online and physical stores. In good faith she wants to increase the sources of income for women victims of violence from Asian, African and Middle Eastern Backgrounds. This will help raise both the livelihood and the self esteem of women who are facing multi-layered hardships in their lives. 
We will continue to build on existing links and collaborative networks in the local communities as well as within the social sector in order to make the project resourceful and accessible to those that are in most need.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      diversity and difference is embraced and valued

 

Women and Children new to the refuge often have feelings of isolation and loss. These families might not have had many opportunities to form happy memories to get them through the tough times.We see many culturally diverse women who come to Shakti with physical, mental and sexual health conditions as a result of their experiences of family harm. Some of these women are highly educated and have a successful career, while others were financially dependent on their perpetrators. Their scars reflect different levels of emotional, psychological and physical spectrum of abuse. It is important that the diversity within the realm of family harm be recognized to be able to provide effective support to vulnerable women and children. 
 
Our Case management and Refuge services focus on the needs of each women based on the risk specific to their individual context. We want there to be specialist therapeutic programmes for women and children living in refuges to help with any behavioral or psychological problems they may have as a result of abuse. And we need to ensure all women and children living in our refuges are back to leading life normally as soon as that can happen. Some women, because of the imposed risk of harm on them by their perpetrators, have to wait for months before they can even step out of refuge- let alone resettling back in their communities.  
 
Through this project we will bring up-cycling workshops in our refuge for those women who cannot go out of refuge, thus acknowledging and catering for the diverse needs of vulnerable women from Asian African and middle Eastern backgrounds who have been subjected to abuse and violence.

Healthy environment approach:

·      Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages

This project will contribute to the therapeutic process and healing whereby women can come together, build their own support groups and express themselves creatively. We will develop, translate and distribute‘Sustainable Living’ information in different ethnic languages during the workshop.The messages of sustainability will also be iterated frequently during our workshops.  
Through our observation and interaction, we believe that environmental education is not easily accessible and or understood by ethnic women originating from Asian, African and Middle Eastern communities living in New Zealand. We are committed to bridge this gap and will be conducting Environmental Awareness training throughout the year to emphasize the importance of sustainable living.  We will also create and disseminate the relevant information flyers along with 2-minute video presentations, translated in different ethnic languages to our trainees.

Additional information to support the application:

Survivors of violence from ethnic migrant and refugee backgrounds account for a significant number of those unemployed or lacking skills to enter the work force. Disadvantaged by language barriers, single household incomes, solo childcare duties, un-recognised qualifications, ethnic women are limited in their job options. 
Through the upcycling workshops, women will practically experience the entire cycle of social enterprise model from sourcing resources/materials, transforming them into saleable products to the promotion of these items.
This will also contribute to the therapeutic process and healing whereby women will build their own support groups and express themselves creatively in a safe environment.

This provides a number of local programmes for the local community, please note these are timed to coincide for hopefully after the impact of the virus at a time when demand for sport may be a at a very high level and the need to provide something for the community could be urgent.  The Trusts Arena is a key local facility and we are keen to support the facility to ensure we can deliver programs to young people in the local area.  Many children are missing out on local basketball and need support as well as local options in order to avoid travelling to take part in the sport.  The centre is one of the few local facilities that is large enough to cater to multiple schools but also one in which can be segmented to cater to smaller groups if required.  The Association is currently also changing its delivery for the immediate few months - prior to June - to allow for more online coaching and interaction including a new app as well as where appropriate socially distant training sessions in schools, each child having one basketball with distance between each child etc.

Project: To barrier fence the road side of the pitches

Location:

Fred Taylor Park 184 Fred Taylor Drive Whenuapai Auckland 0814

Summary:

We are hoping to install preimeter fences on the road side of our pitches so as to stop any persons young or old from chasing balls that leave the pitch and cross onto the road that the cars are driving on to reach their parking destinations.  By doing this we eliminate any risk and safe guard all persons so that their time at FTP is a pleasurable one.

Expertise:

We will be engaging professionals to do the main structure and then a working bee to do the tidy up jobs.  the H & S committee undertook the task of visiting other parks and facilities to see what measures they have put in place and through this exercise were able to rule out some options as not suitable for our park sturcture.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

All persons coming to FTP to either play or watch football are secure in knowing that they are safe guarded from a momentary lapse of reason and they will not be caught up in the moment of running into the oncoming vehicles that enter the park and proceed down the driveway to their parking destination.  Secondly it lessens the impact of damage to balls entering the car parking areas and lessens again the chance of further risk to persons or property.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

·      our parks and recreational services provide a range of accessible experiences for our diverse community

 

We are very aware of the main driveway that runs the length of the pitches no 2, 1 and 3 and we need to install some safety barriers so that we can avoid near misses that have occurred when people both adults and child rush out to get a ball with out taking their safety into concern.  By building a barrier fence we are actively protecting all persons and making a super safe environment.  This will potentially stop the balls from reaching the road and stop further accidents from occurring also.  Our H & S committee are committed to educating any persons at Fred Taylor park and making it a nice experience for everyone.

Project: The New Zealand Dance Company Tāmaki Tour

Location:

Various locations around Auckland

Summary:

In 2020, NZDC's Youth & Community Engagement Programme will see the Company tour 'Matariki for Tamariki', a "whole whānau" work for youth, families/kid-adults to schools around Auckland as a part of its annual Tāmaki Tour. 'Matariki for Tamariki' has been created to be performed in adaptable spaces - from classrooms and school halls to theatres.
 
For those schools that would like to hold dance workshops for their students, NZDC will offer these to accompany performances of 'Matariki for Tamariki', offering students the chance to work directly with highly skilled dance practitioners.
 
NZDC is committed to fostering young people's access to high-quality arts experiences and seeks to provide participatory/performance opportunities to a range of schools - with low or no cost.

Expertise:

With significant experience in delivering community events, NZDC delivered 37 performances, 226 workshops and classes to 3944 tamariki in schools across Auckland and Northland in 2019 alone. 
 
We look forward to bringing more access to this superb show for youth and communities across Tāmaki Makauaru in 2020.
 
NZDC is a high-calibre community of dancers, creative collaborators, arts managers and supporters dedicated to producing and presenting inspiring new dance for Aotearoa/New Zealand and the world. We exist with the desire to change the way audiences experience contemporary dance - to break boundaries and share its power, beauty and humility.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

'Matariki for Tamariki'  toured to schools and was performed in venues across Auckland over the Matariki period in 2019 and engaged meaningfully with local artists and audiences.
 
This project enables access, inclusivity, participation and opportunity for Aucklanders of all- ages to engage; employs NZ’s top dancers; and creates contemporary dance that is praised for its quality, creativity and contribution to the cultural fabric of Aotearoa.
 
The key outcomes of this project are to encourage inclusiveness, increase participation and uplift our community, especially after the crisis of COVID-19. By bringing this project to schools, we would be able to engage with young people while educating them about Māori culture and tradition in the context of Matariki. We hope to take young people across Tāmaki Makauaru on a journey of cultural exploration and deepen understanding of the Māori connection to the land of Aotearoa. Our workshops will promote more active participation in the arts and develop participants; collaborative skills and creative thinking.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      arts, events and cultural activities reflect our many heritages

As part of NZDC's 2020 Youth & Community Engagement Strategy, our Tāmaki Tour programme focuses on connecting with youth and different communities across Tāmaki Makaurau through bringing high calibre dance performances and workshops to schools across the region. After the success of last year’s Tāmaki Tour we are bringing back ‘Matariki for Tamariki’ by accomplished New Zealand dancer and choreographer Sean MacDonald (Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Raukawa, Ngāi Tahu), which was proudly a part of the 2019 Auckland Matariki Festival. A celebration for the whole family, Sean brings to life a world where a band of players, a group of friends, and a whānau travel throughout Aotearoa and its landscape of lush ngahere (forests), mighty maunga (mountains), and majestic moana (oceans), encountering the flora and fauna through seasonal changes. The journey begins and ends through the setting and rising of the Matariki whetū (star) cluster. Along the way, the performers inhabit the wairua (spirit) of each of the nine whetū of Matariki and through their adventures use the power and meaning of karakia (prayer), ritual, waiata (song) and whakapapa (lineage) to plant the seeds of new beginnings for hope of the future ahead. Sean’s majestic choreography paired with evocative costume and set design by Rona Ngahuia Osborne as well as spectacular sound design by Alistair Deverick will leave kids and “kidaults” alike filled with joy and gratitude for the whenua (land) we call home.
 
Integrated with NZDC’s Tāmaki Tour, schools are also offered creative workshops where the students are able to explore the themes and movement used in ‘Matariki for Tamariki’ alongside a unique educational resource. Students will also be given a chance to investigate their own interpretation of Matariki through creative tasks used in the workshops. These workshops will embrace the creative and artistic potential of students across Tāmaki Makaurau. The idea of engaging with local schools is to involve students and encourage active participation to celebrate the vibrant arts and cultural scene of our shared community. In the Henderson Massey Local Board, we are currently in conversation with Don Buck School, whom we have engaged over the last few years of our Tāmaki Tour. The school is not able to confirm its participation until we are able to confirm a subsidy in cost, funding willing.
 
Given the current circumstances in regard to COVID-19, we anticipate that our first opportunity to perform and engage with audiences is through our Tāmaki Tour programme, scheduled for end of June/early July 2020. We believe that following these next several months, the youth of Henderson-Massey will need uplifting through the arts. Depending on how the COVID-19 situation unfolds here in Aotearoa, we also have the capacity, funding willing to deliver our Tāmaki Tour Programme digitally if required by live streaming the show or workshops affiliated with the show. Additionally, we remain flexible in terms of our engagement date being postponed beyond June if necessary.

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori involvement in the design/concept

This project will fulfil three of the above outcomes. Through collaboration with Māori choreographer Sean MacDonald (Ngāti Kahungunu, Ngāti Raukawa) we have developed a work inspired by Matariki and the landscape of Aotearoa. The work ‘Matariki for Tamariki’ celebrates the traditions and stories inherited from Māori ancestors through the lens of contemporary dance paired with sound, costume  and set design. Our Tāmaki tour will allow youth of local communities to engage in Māori culture and heritage through performances of ‘Matariki for Tamariki’ as well as workshops. Teachers will be aided in preparing for our engagement and continuing lessons afterwards with our educational resource, which is provided upon confirmation of booking.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - We have the ability to perform in adaptable spaces -individual school dependant. If the current situation with COVID-19 continues and we are not able to deliver in schools, our digital programme would be accessible to any student in the school.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

Through our workshops offered as part of our Tāmaki tour, students will be encouraged to move their body and participate actively. We hope that through this, youth will enjoy dancing and engaging their body creatively, encouraging them to continue this practice in everyday life. Performances will also leave youth inspired to try movement out for themselves, in addition to watching others engaging.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$12000.00

Requesting grant for:

Subsidising the cost of performance/workshop delivery for schools, artistic costs and fees for the remounting and delivery of "Matariki for Tamariki", and the cost of camera hire for a digital alternative to delivery.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

Any amount would be helpful in the cost of delivering workshops and performances to local schools. We would like to keep the cost to schools minimal or free of cost to accomplish our mission of making art accessible for all. Therefore, we would still like to deliver this project even if only part of it is funded. However, if the project is only partly funded, we may need to ask schools to contribute towards our delivery cost or alternatively, reduce the number of schools we visit and mobilise financial reserves to cover shortfall.

Cost of participation:

Scaled programme fee dependant on schools' ability to contribute to fee. Performances would range from free to koha to a set fee.

Fresh Movement Arts Trust

Legal status:

Incorporated Society

Activity focus:

Arts and culture

Conflicts of interest:

None identified

Project: Fresh Movement / RVLTN School tour

Location:

Schools throughout Auckland City

Summary:

The Fresh Movement Arts Trust wish to partner with the RVLTN tour to deliver a school tour that uses performing arts as a vehicle for youth development, empowering young leaders and enabling positive change. The RVLTN tour has taken positive youth development messaging into schools throughout the country for over ten years and is a well trusted and established brand among schools. As well as the school tour we wish to provide free community dance classes in every area that we perform in to create greater engagement for young people into the community and into the arts.

Expertise:

Fresh Movement Arts Trust have been operating for over five years and have worked in a number of schools delivering arts programming. They also specialize in creating engaging content for young people and are very popular in the youth demographic. Fresh Movement are leaders in the dance scene and specialize in working with under resourced communities. 
 
The RVLTN tour has been running for the past 14 years. The RVLTN tour is operated under the umbrella of the Revo Tour Trust. They visit over 165 schools across the country.

Promotion:

We plan to have any funders branding on our onstage branding, uniforms and printed materials.
We will also acknowledge funders during the tour shows and at the community classes.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Local schools will get free performances from top quality performers and influencers.
 
The RVLTN tour provides top communicators to deliver the key messaging (around leadership development, taking pride in your community and your school and building resiliency) 
 
Free community dance workshops in local arts spaces that will not only build skill in the participants but promote local services, providers and engage students into local community led programming.
 
We aim to build a sense of pride in each community and lift morale after the covid-19 situation has been remedied.

 

 

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      arts, events and cultural activities reflect our many heritages

The Fresh Movement Arts Trust have partnered with the RVLTN tour for a second year. Through this partnership we are looking to go into high schools throughout Auckland city and use young artists / performers and the power of performing arts as a vehicle to deliver key youth development messaging and instill a sense of pride to students in their school and their communities. 
 
We have found that through the level of performance offered by the Fresh Movement Arts Trust and the quality of delivery offered by the RVLTN tour we are able to speak to young people in a highly effective way that leaves lasting positive change. 
 
This year we are wanting to use the tour as an opportunity to celebrate the uniqueness of the local communities, empower young leaders and offer some positive messaging to students once the covid-19 situations have calmed down. 
 
We also want to provide free dance workshops in every area that we tour too. This will not only provide free high quality arts education but also highlight arts spaces in the individual communities that students can access moving forward.  
 
Through the school tour and the free community workshops we believe that we are engaging young people into the arts and unlocking future local creatives.   
 
We have worked in the following schools in the Henderson-Massey local board area in 2019, we are looking to work with at least four of these schools this year; 
Henderson High School, St Dominics, Henderson Intermediate, Massey High School, Waitakere College, West Auckland Middle School and Te Atatu Intermediate.
 
We will be providing the free workshops at "Zeal West" on Alderman drive.
 
Though this has been planned for a number of months and schools are working with us among the current situations with lock downs and social distancing, we believe that activation's like this will be needed and timely once schools are reopened.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

Though we do not target Maori specifically,  our workshops have historically had a high number of Maori participation. 90% of Fresh Movement programming to date has been delivered to Maori and Pasefika (with the majority of that coming from Maori). So though we are not targeting Maori specifically I can imagine that our audiences will be made up primarily of Maori.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our tour shows will be held in school halls which should be all fitted to accommodate an disabled students. 
 Fresh Movement Arts Trust has worked with young people with disabilities for years and we are well trained in delivering classes for people with mixed abilities.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

Through our tour we speak to the harm of drugs and alcohol, this extends to delivering smoke-free messaging. Through our communicators we also encourage a well balanced lifestyle and emphasize the importance of healthy nutrition and exercise. 
 
Our free workshops will give us more of an avenue to speak these key messages as barriers to succeeding in a dance class are evident and are easy to speak to. We will actively promote healthy lifestyle messaging through this platform.
 
We currently have not planned to deliver any zero waste messaging but would happily incorporate it in requested.

Conflicts of interest:

Project: Gift a Seat™

Location:

The PumpHouse, 2a Manurere Avenue, Takapuna, Auckland 0622

Summary:

Our Gift a Seat™ outreach programme enables children from low decile schools and ECE centres to experience a full-scale live theatre production, providing more equitable access to the arts. We hope these professional and world-class theatre productions fire and unlock their young imaginations and ignite their creative minds for the future.

Expertise:

im Bray Theatre Company is the leading theatre company for children in Auckland. Established in 1991, this year sees us producing our 100th show for children, and last year nearly 25,000 children, parents, grandparents and teachers experienced our theatre shows. 
 
Beyond our regular season at The PumpHouse, we tour one show a year across Auckland and have also produced shows in the Far North, Hamilton, Tauranga as well as Edinburgh.  
 
We have been providing free theatre tickets to disadvantaged children since 2004. This programme has since developed into Gift a Seat ™ - a major Auckland outreach programme for children due to our focus on building strong connections with low decile schools across Auckland.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The benefits of experiencing a Tim Bray live theatre production are manifold. Teachers are provided a free comprehensive Resource Guide to prepare children and get the most out of the show. This cross-curricular resource weaves the show into everyday learning experiences, springboarding off the initial inspiring experience to engage children in reading, speaking, comprehension, drama, visual arts, music and math concepts.  Beyond curricular learning, teachers have fed back on improved social competencies developed through the confidence building of acting, enhanced imaginative play and collaboration.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

Celebrated as Auckland’s leading theatre for children, Tim Bray Theatre Company have been at the forefront of the industry for nearly 30 years. Guided by a strong management team and strategic plan we are making a significant difference in the Henderson-Massey community that we serve with our Gift a Seat™ outreach programme. Over the years we have built strong relationships with schools in the Henderson-Massey area, either through gifted or paying tickets, and this grant would help us continue to develop these relationships.   If this application to your local board is approved, it will provide Gift a Seat™ tickets to children and young people from low decile schools and early childhood centres in your local board area to attend a performance of Greedy Cat by Joy Cowley in September or The Santa Claus Show in December. Though the event itself is held at the PumpHouse Takapuna, the extended learning benefits from attending the show will transfer into your local community, rewarding recipient schools with increased participation in the arts, a better understanding of drama, music and literature.There is also the provision of some funded bus transport if that is also a barrier to participation. Around our shows we offer free storytelling sessions in local libraries to your communities.
 
Many of the children receiving tickets have never seen a full-scale live theatre production before. This immersive, interactive experience not only broadens their imaginations, it improves their understanding of drama, music and literacy, feeding directly into the NZ Primary Curriculum and supporting teachers to provide a balanced education. Teachers are provided with free resources so that learning can continue beyond the initial experience to build a more comprehensive and in-depth understanding. Importantly, the experience reaches beyond the classroom, teaching social skills and building confidence, which transfers into other aspects of their lives. 
As explained in thank you letters attached from some past Gift a Seat™ recipient schools, the response from teachers and students are heartfelt and encouraging, affirming that these performances are a vital part for children’s development; socially, educationally and emotionally – building confidence, enhancing wellbeing and improving learning outcomes – they are often a catalyst for increased involvement and participation in the arts, which has in turn been proven around the world to provide improved cross-curricular achievement, decreased truancy and higher rates of high-school graduation.

The company is an outstanding model of inclusion. "Our Gift a Seat™ programme allows these children to attend with pre-paid tickets. We offer discounted Companion Tickets to carers. All venues are accessible by wheelchairs. 
 
We have been offering accessible performances at our shows at the PumpHouse Theatre since 2004, including NZSL interpreted and audio described performances and Sensory Relaxed Performances for children with neurodiverse needs.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

Smoke-Free
We request that any of our cast or crew who smoke do not smoke (so few don't these days) in view of the audience coming to see our shows as they are role models to our young audiences. The PumpHouse Theatre is a smoke-free environment.
Waste minimisation
Our set, costumes and props for our shows remain in storage when we know they are likely to be represented within two years. The Santa Claus Show was redesigned and rebuilt in 2017 and was reused in 2019 and will again be reused in 2020. But we also reuse and recycle sets, props and costumes for other productions wherever possible. We belong to a Facebook group called Theatre Trade and Exchange and either post surplus items for others to use or use other theatre productions' items when possible.
We have stopped the printing and mailout of our quarterly newsletter that was sent out to the 4,000 families on our database as a way to reduce paper.
Healthy options
No food or drink is supplied by us at The PumpHouse Theatre and we encourage families to bring their own picnics to enjoy in the amphitheatre or Killarney Park.
Active lifestyles
In the 50 minute to one hour show, children and adults see very physical performances from our cast, and get to meet the sweaty actors after the show, We often hear how children recreate scenes from our shows at home.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$37921.20

Requesting grant for:

Gift a Seat™ tickets allow children who would not normally be able to attend a professional theatre production to do so. Otherwise tickets range in price from $12 (Education groups) to $30 (Gala Opening tickets) with a range of discounts for Groups, Early Bird Specials and Companion Tickets for those who require assistance.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

If we cannot find funding for the Gift a Seat™ tickets, more seats will be made available for higher decile schools and Early Childhood Centres in order to cover the costs of the production. While our project will go ahead without the funding, many children from disadvantaged backgrounds in local communities across Auckland will miss out on the opportunity to experience the joys and learning opportunities of a full-scale live theatre production.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

At Action Education we have four overarching community outcomes that drive and guide our youth programmes and activities:
We have five overarching outcomes that we expect the young people participating inthis programmes will achieve.
1) Young people have a sense of belonging and feel connected to their communities
2) Young people have the means to explore and express culture, identity and diversity in a safe supported environment
3) Young people have a sense of contributing to society; their opinions are listened and valued
4) Young people have enhanced sense of wellbeing and personal development from being involved in positive, pro social opportunities

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      arts, events and cultural activities reflect our many heritages

Action Education is a grassroots - youth development - community organisation.
We use action and creative based methods to ignite the engagement of young people in their journey of self-development.
Our current services include:
          WORD – The Front Line: New Zealand’s first inter-secondary school spoken word poetry competition
          WORD Creative Incubator Programme: For school leavers, held in venues across Auckland
          WORD Poetry Summit: Annually, To bring together rural and urban youth leaders and poets
          WORD Stand Up Poetry: held monthly in three venues across Auckland, they are for all ages to perform in front of a safe and supportive audience
          Rangatahi Maori Programme: A programme designed with rangatahi Maori and whanau, specifically for them to explore Te Ao Maori and identity.
 
Spoken word poetry is an art form that’s increasingly recognised as an effective vehicle through which young people can explore themselves, process their feelings, connect and understand their place within their culture, family, whanau and community.
Using feedback from young people, we have honed and refined our programmes that are run in community centres and schools within the Local Board Area.

KidsCan Charitable Trust

Legal status:

Charitable Trust

Activity focus:

Community

Conflicts of interest:

None identified

Project: Children's Programmes

Location:

Low decile schools and ECEs throughout the Auckland region

Summary:

KidsCan programmes are delivered through low decile schools and low index early childhood centres. By running our programmes through schools this encourages the child to attend school, helps to put them in a good position to learn and removes barriers to participate in their education. Our programmes provide food, health items, shoes and socks, raincoats and hygiene products such as sanitary items for girls. With rising living costs and increased financial strain on many Kiwi families we continue to feel the need for our support within our many communities.

Expertise:

Over the past 15 years KidsCan has created tangible and practical programmes that provide the basics, to support New Zealand children living in hardship. Education is how we will break the cycle of hardship, and it is at the core of everything KidsCan does. In order to provide the best products to meet the needs of the children, we regularly meet with schools to get feedback on all programme items to ensure they are the most practical and beneficial as possible.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Short term issues that this initiative addresses includes absenteeism (which can be for a number of reasons), distracted and disengaged children in the classroom and children suffering from lack of belonging and low self-esteem. Long term issues we are trying to address with these programmes include poverty, community wellbeing and increasing literacy and the level of education in lower socioeconomic areas. Independent research by Massey University found our partnerships with low decile schools have a significant impact on reducing social issues, increasing participation in class and in raising the self-esteem of children who feel they have no hope. In 2018 we conducted research with our partner schools which provided us with overwhelming support, 92% of Principals surveyed believe KidsCan items contribute to increased attendance and participation for students.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

KidsCan supports the education and wellbeing of 9140 students attending 20 low decile schools and 97 young children attending 3 ECEs within the Henderson-Massey region.  KidsCan programmes provide food, clothing and health items to disadvantaged children, ensuring they have every opportunity to be engaged with their learning and make the most of their education. We provide the support needed to get our most vulnerable Kiwi kids the best chance at a great education, to enable them to break that cycle of hardship and to create employment opportunities for their future. Community wellbeing and in particular the wellbeing of children is extremely important to KidsCan. By running our programmes through schools we are encouraging disadvantaged children to attend school, improving their educational outcomes and allowing them the greatest opportunity to reach their full potential in life. This leads to a happier community with more educated young people. Our programmes reduce anger, theft and violence - supporting youth who may be at risk can change their lives and help break the poverty cycle.

The ReCreators

Legal status:

Activity focus:

Conflicts of interest:

Project: Online & practical upcycling workshops enabling communities to creativily reuse.

Location:

Auckland Council Community Centres

Summary:

The Re-Creators community online and in-person upcycling workshops provide adults and children with the skills, creativity and positivity around developing useful items from "waste".   Our workshops empower and unite the community while providing positive messaging around the issues of waste and climate action.  In addition, they are mindful in nature supporting positive mental well-being. In these difficult times, we can still connect with our audience via video calls and webinars.  During recover from Covid 19, we can eventually return to practical in-person workshops but until then we can discuss and demonstrate skills via video.

Expertise:

The ReCreators have been delivering our workshops for over a year now as well as developing video content.  We will be ramping up our free video content during COVID 19 and posting to community pages.  Our collective skills vary from general networking, project management, staff management, marketing & design, woodwork, product design, furniture restoration, artistic painting, fashion design, sewing teaching, mosaicing plus many more skills. The purpose of the Collective is for the local community to easily access our upcycling brand and for our collective to join forces to become a better messaging force.

Promotion:

In the past we have used social media, links to community pages to advertise our courses. For our Xmas Upcycled Gift Making courses we sought a PR press release from Stuff,   We use logos and thank the LB in our reporting social media posts.  Our free courses are always full and have been popular to date when well advertised.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The community gain practical, resilient skills such as sewing, woodwork, power tools, crocheting, furniture refurbishment and general upcycled art design.  They provide a positive example of climate action and instil positive well-being through mindful making.   In addition, there are income opportunities for artists in the community who struggle to find meaningful work. 
 
The ReCreators engage locals from the community to link to their neighbourhoods reinforcing the messaging. We provide practical DIY videos for free but want to extend this further by offering personal online courses taking direct questions from our audience.  our social media provides positive and creative messaging about ideas to combat climate change through sustainable crafting & DIY.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      people are central to maintaining our environment

The practice of upcycling provides communities with the creative skills (woodwork, sewing, design)  to adopt a low carbon lifestyle where they first think to repair or reuse materials rather than buying new and/or throwing away.   Having communities adopt upcycling into their lifestyle will change their behaviour towards consumption and managing their waste, which will help them achieve living a more sustainable life.  
 
The ReCreators provide local employment and skills development for facilitators and our classes create positivity through collective creativity and is a positive example of climate action.

Project: Youth programmes for young people with disabilities

Location:

Auckland

Summary:

Recreate NZ offers youth development programmes for young people who have disabilities and youth volunteers. The youth programmes we are applying for are called "Urban Youth" events and these are regular events that bring young people together to celebrate diversity, take place out in the community and increase opportunities for those who are often socially isolated to develop in social confidence.
 
Urban Youth events are taking place within local board areas and we are applying to local boards where greatest attendance of young people of these events are coming from. Our budget is for 40 youth events for the coming year which typically have attendance of 25 young people with an intellectual disability and 7 youth volunteer support workers.

Expertise:

For 18 years Recreate NZ has been committed to creating life changing opportunities for youth with disabilities and support to their families. Over this time Recreate has followed a vision to create a quality service delivered by passionate and experienced youth workers. Our team consists of staff who have worked with our youth and families for an average of 7-15 years of the life of the organisation.
 
Staff and volunteer training are maintained and consistent and we are specialists in the youth and disability field.
 
In line with this Recreate was awarded the I AM Auckland “Youth Safe” award in 2014 and 2015 for following best safety practices and creating an environment that young people feel safe to be themselves.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Whilst our community benefits are vast, here are some key outcome we see;
We observe young people who are often socially isolated, then grow in confidence as they find a place of acceptance and belonging. Outcomes extend to a greater self-awareness and independence as youth develop in areas of life that they may not have engaged in before.
As we value the diversity, acceptance and uniqueness of all children and young people we see the general community engaging in this value. 
It is our vision to encourage the positive development and inclusion of the current and future generations of youth with disabilities within our society.
Recreate's key value is young people being supported by young people, learning from each other and working towards a more inclusive New Zealand. Through the value we see opportunities for young volunteers to develop as future leaders and mentors.
Recreate supports young people who are a vulnerable group within our community, due to their disability, require support and practical life skills to be able to safely access community.
Urban Youth programmes offer the opportunity to become engaged in mainstream social activities that other young people in the community are involved in, normalising disability/diversity, increasing inclusion.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      diversity and difference is embraced and valued

Recreate NZ is a community group whose core purpose is to offer youth development programmes for young people with disabilities and youth volunteer workers, we are making a significant difference for young people who are often overlooked and not included within community.
 
We often see disabled youth facing significant barriers within the community, including prejudice, lack of understanding and lack of opportunities to develop meaningful skills, with an unequal access to employment and education. In our experience, disabled youth face similar barriers along with other marginalised group and are excluded from community life. 
 
Recreate NZ is dedicated to removing these barriers, and create life changing experiences in their place. Our youth development  programmes encourage the acceptance of the diversity of people with impairments within the community. 
 
We are pursuing a more inclusive Auckland through the means of disabled youth participants being supported by members of their community to participate fully in society and have equal opportunities. We observe youth who are often socially isolated, then grow in confidence as they achieve beyond their own expectations, finding acceptance and belonging in the Recreate and wider community. This encourages a confident response to other areas of their life such as further education, independent living, employment opportunities, increased socialisation and an active role in community life. Recreates youth development outcomes also extend to a greater self-awareness and independence as their youth are able to develop in areas of life that they may not have engaged in before attending Recreate.
 
Our project is a series of youth events for young people with disabilities and youth workers, which highlights our core value; young people supporting young people, working towards a more inclusive New Zealand.

Henderson-Massey

·      diversity and difference is embraced and valued

Continuing to invest in the mental health and well-being of Auckland residents is critical to help reduce the inequity in the physical, mental, financial and social outcomes between people with good health and those without. There is a very real need in the community and thousands people in Auckland are battling on their own, unsure of the resources available or lacking the confidence to ask for help. Anxiety NZ will provide community education, locally and accessibly to help educate, connect, normalise help seeking and create supportive, informed network for individuals, alongside peer support.
 
Our project we are seeking local board funding involves three free community workshop series and is going to be aimed at key community groups within the local board region which can include, but not limited to; parents of children with anxiety, ethnic/migrant/refugee groups, students and elderly. Through our project which is to provide a variety of educational workshops within the local board area will accommodate language diversity through our multi-lingual team and be aimed at a diverse range of community groups. 
 
Our Community Anxiety NZ Workshops are designed to help community members develop resilience and strategies for the prevention of, or when experiencing ill-mental health. Well-being skills include; managing stress, self-care, maintaining healthy boundaries, managing emotions, de-escalation skills, peer care and support and other related tools for mental well-being. We will provide community education to a diverse range of marginalised groups, along with caregivers working with young people in workshops, talks and presentations in a range of settings. 
 
Another goal though the workshops is to increase a sense of belonging and increase community participation and support. That community members are not alone in their time of challenge, with their own or a loved ones mental health and peer support will be incorporated into the workshops.

Ranui library, Selwyn day centres, East Coast Bays library, Panmure Library, St Heliers Library, central City Library, Artspace Aotearoa, Elizabeth Knox Home & Hospital, Selwyn Village, Totara Hospice, Ellen Melville Centre, North Shore (care home to be confirmed)

Summary:

We will run at least 15 shared reading groups around Auckland and train new volunteers to start more groups. We estimate an additional 5-10 groups within the 12 months of this project. Our manager/volunteer coordinator recruits, trains and supports each Reader Leader and their group. She visits the groups and provides mentoring and hosts coffee groups for volunteers, writes a newsletter, provides resources and databases and writes reports for stakeholders and host communities. This role is essential to ensure that we provide the highest quality service to our diverse participants.

Expertise:

The Reading Revolution has delivered shared reading groups since 2015 within such diverse communities as prisons, libraries, care homes and drug rehabilitation. We provide Read to lead-an immersive three day programme for our Reader Leaders and provide ongoing support. We have been trained by The Reader Organisation UK to deliver the highest international standard and are the only New Zealand based trainers. Staff at our host communities report to us that shared reading furthers their own goals and aspirations for residents/ clients. "It has built a great relationship between difficult clients and staff" - (Auckland libraries) "It helps people to be open and ready for therapy by encouraging them to look at their own stories from a different angle" (Odyssey)

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Many of our participants have experienced loneliness and isolation. Our groups break down barriers for people with anxieties as the story and poem are the centre of attention in the room. This breaks down initial nervousness about what to talk about. Our Reader Leaders are intensively trained to be very welcoming and value each contribution as a gift so participants quickly build confidence to begin contributing to the discussion. We encourage a personal interaction with a text so we ask very open questions to the group. Our discussion is non-academic there are no right or wrong answers. We are there to create an interpretation unique to the time and place.
 
Research on shared reading in the UK:
Readers responded like this:
 
94%
I look forward to the group as an important event in my week.
 
91%
The reading sessions make me feel better.
 
84%
I've made new friends within the group.
 
Shared Reading volunteers say...
Our community-led model means that Shared Reading has a ‘double impact’, benefitting our volunteers as well as our readers.
 94%
... it has given me a sense of achievement
 
86%
... it has increased my enjoyment of reading

·      people know each other and feel connected in their neighbourhoods

Our local Ranui based volunteers have identified a need for connection between the diverse residents in their neighbourhood- this has inspired the creation of a new shared reading group. This project is a new shared reading group based out of Ranui library. 
 
Our volunteers Rae & Karen are motivated to integrate a community with very diverse living situations and experiences. This idea has worked really well at the Central City library where we have been running a group since 2016 that integrates rough sleepers with new migrants, retired people, people with disabilities and other diverse library users. This model encourages people to experience success and positive leadership as their unique experiences will be relevant to discussion on the stories and poetry. When diverse participants share their knowledge with the group in a safe context both they and the group are empowered. 
 
Below is an example of the discussion that comes from shared reading in a library with a diverse group:
 
"We talked about class differences in New Zealand and England, first, and then in other countries, like China and Japan. A. remembered how in her childhood in China kids from the city were told not to hang out with countryside kids. G. read aloud for the first time, other group members responded positively, he seemed pleased. He used to be very quiet during his first sessions, never spoke or read. It's nice to see him opening up slowly and becoming more comfortable with the group. He also shared with us where he came from and grew up. At the end of the session, D said that although it takes him two buses to come to the city library he didn't mind doing that since he like having intelligent conversation and the readings spark up his imagination. " - shared reading participants March 2020
 
We are also working with Blind and Low Vision NZ to integrate their clients within the wider community through this shared reading group.

We use Maori & Pasifika literature already in our groups but we are currently planning a new group that will focus solely on Maori & Pasifika stories and poetry.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Shared reading is always held in fully accessible spaces. We read all stories and poetry aloud within sessions to break barriers for people with blindness or low vision or other perceptual reading impairments such as low literacy. We are currently working with Blind & Low Vision NZ on our Ranui library project. Our volunteering programme is also accessible we currently have fantastic volunteers with MS and Parkinsons who are able to share their talents and give back to the community through shared reading. Breaking down barriers to participation is one of our top priorities. We also work with many participants with various mental health conditions which is why it is so vital that we provide the best support for volunteers.

Requesting grant for:

We are a very light organisation as we are volunteer based. However we need one paid professional role at the heart of it all. We are applying for wages for our manager/volunteer coordinator for 25 hours per week. The role of Reader Leader is intense and we need to provide the best wraparound support for our volunteers to ensure the sustainability of our projects and that best practice is observed. It is a top priority that volunteering is a fun and rewarding part of people's lives and we provide the highest quality service to communities with happy healthy volunteers!

 

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We will continue to apply for lotteries funding and other funding sources. Our manager will continue to work as a volunteer during this time if there are gaps in funding. This is financially very difficult for her but she is fully committed to this project.

Project: Road safety and youth development programmes for Auckland youth

Location:

Road Safety Education provides programmes in venues throughout Auckland local to the schools seeking to attend.  In the past we have utilised event centres at Mt Smart, Pulman Park, Alexandra Park, Pakuranga Rugby Club, Trust Arena and more

Summary:

Road Safety Education’s mission is to provide evidence-based road safety youth development education that saves lives through the development of a road safety culture.  The aim of the programme is to increase an understanding of road safety issues and approaching road use with social responsibility.   
 
Our organisation delivers programmes nationally however 40% are specifically to students in the Auckland region.  
 
We request support towards the operating costs of our organisation essential not only when we are presenting programmes but also while we are in the unpredictable period of isolation. During Covid-19 uncertainty we continue to support our schools by developing and providing online resources and lesson plans and our employees work on content, delivery techniques and building new school relationships.

Expertise:

Road Safety Education began providing programmes in Auckland schools in 2006.  The organisation has grown significantly with 47% grown over the last 3years and 18% in 2019.  
 
In 2019 we provided 20 programmes to 2885 students attended by 22 schools from the Auckland region. In 2020 the plan is for 23 programmes to 3865 students. 
 
We employ a small team of three part-time Programme Coordinators working remotely.  Maria Lovelock-national Manager joined the organisation 2016 with over 15years of experience working with charities.  Programme facilitators/presenters are sourced from the local regions. They have experience presenting interactive education sessions, are youth relatable and experienced in interacting with students.  Our facilitators have been fully trained and assessed as competent by our national manager.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Our programme takes students on a road safety journey at that time in their life when they start to get their license. From identifying/understanding the issues to accepting risk on a personal level, developing strategies to mitigate the risk and approaching road-use as a social responsibility. 
 
Each year the total social cost of the crashes which 15–24-year-old drivers have the primary responsibility is approximately $1 billion.   Enabling students to take part in our Road Safety education programme is a critical tool to reduce this statistics because the information and strategies provided are not otherwise available from driving lessons, books or the school-classroom.  
 
Our road safety programme is a youth development package which has been designed by education experts to not only teach youth responsibility on the road but also foster global citizenship and social responsibility.  
 
Students are taught self-awareness, how to understand their personality risk profile and how this impacts their behaviours on and off the road.   We seek to increase empathy towards others through impactful sessions emphasising long-term impacts of behaviours personally and to others.  
 
We believe that with more social awareness and less apathy young people will be better contributors to society and better prepared for their future.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

While there is considerable emphasis on young people learning driving skills so they can pass their license, there is need for greater education around driver and passenger attitudes and how making better decisions can actually keep young people as well as their community members safer on the road. 
 
It has been suggested that physical vehicle handling and traffic laws can be learned with approximately 15 hours of driving experience.  It's the higher-order cognitive skills that are more difficult to develop and need increased focus through education like our programme. 
 
Each year the total social cost of the crashes in which 15–24-year-old drivers have the primary responsibility is approximately $1 billion. This is 25 percent of the social cost associated with all injury crashes. (Ministry of Transport, young drivers report 2017), Male drivers in the 15–19 year age group are approximately eight times more likely to crash than male drivers in the lowest risk age group of 55–59 years and female drivers aged 15–19 are about six times more likely to crash  than female drivers in the lowest risk group of 45–49 year olds.  For every fatality there are approximately another 10 people who are seriously injured. 
 Furthermore, according to The Ministry of Transport's annual Social Cost of Road Crashes and Injuries report the cost of road trauma in New Zealand is significant. As at June 2018 the average social cost per fatality was $4.34 million, $458,400 per serious injury and $24,700 per minor injury.
 
Enabling students to take part in our Road Safety education programme is a critical tool to reduce these statistics and improve local economic outcomes.  If less local finances are required to support accident victims more money is available for local organisational development.

Road Safety Education request essential operating costs required to deliver programmes and support school staff throughout the Auckland region.  Our organisation delivers road safety and youth development programmes throughout the country, 40% of which are run in the Auckland region.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

Auckland Council is our preferred funder for Auckland region portion (40%) of these operational costs. If unsuccessful Road Safety Education will plan to apply to other funders in the region to support the administration of our staff.  If we are unsuccessful in sourcing these funds we will need to re-look at the way we operate and look to reduce these costs.

Conflicts of interest:

Project: Street Youth Work and Community Activations: West and South Auckland

Location:

Streets and public and community places across West and South Auckland

Summary:

Zeal focuses on providing solutions concerning the safety and health and wellbeing of young people. We have seen first-hand the vulnerability of young people and the issues around anti-social behaviour, mental health, homelessness and safety, and have worked to provide an innovative coordinated approach to address these concerns. In Henderson and Ranui the project involves teams of youth workers going out onto the streets multiple times a week to connect with vulnerable and disengaged youth. In Henderson/Massey, Waitakere Ranges, Whau, Mangere/Otahuhu and Otara/Papatoetoe, Zeal youth workers will run a series of community activations designed to connect young people to local services to help build sustainable pathways for youth development.

Expertise:

We are a national leader in youth development, working through evidence-based youth work models including The Circle of Courage, Te Whare Tapa Wha and the Youth Development Strategy of Aotearoa. The West Auckland Street Youth Work Project was established in Henderson in October 2014. In 2016, due to its success, it was expanded into surrounding suburbs including Ranui, Glen Eden and New Lynn with the aim of reaching more disengaged and at-risk young people. Zeal has also operated a similar project in Wellington's CBD and the Hamilton Street Youth Work project has been operating since 2017.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

This project focuses on improving community safety and the safety, health, wellbeing and connectedness of vulnerable young people by engaging youth in positive activities within their communities. Specific community outcomes include:
• Engage the most vulnerable young people on the streets in West Auckland through our Street Youth Work project
• Build positive and trusting relationships and ensure the proper support for young people using a strengths-based approach
• Support young people to engage with community services and providers within their local area
• Reduce truancy and connect young people into education, training or employment
• Reduce anti-social behaviour, enhancing community safety
• Connect young people to Zeal’s youth facility and the many youth development activities and opportunities it provides
• Collaborate with other youth, community and welfare services in West and South Auckland to provide wrap-around services for young people

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

West Auckland Street Youth Work Project: 
Due to an increase in youth crime and anti-social behaviour in West Auckland, Zeal established the West Auckland Street Youth Work Project. In collaboration with Ranui135, Zeal places teams of youth-workers on the streets of Henderson and Ranui to engage with young people in known “hot-spots” at peak times. Youth workers meet young people on the streets on their territory, connecting and building relationships of trust. They engage with approximately 200 young people per month. Youth workers connect/refer approximately 20 young people per month to support services such as emergency food, education, legal help, counselling and guidance, emergency help and community based activities. By providing a consistent presence on the streets where young people can go for help, a place of safety in the form of Zeal’s youth facility and the services it offers, along with a range of other referral agencies, Zeal makes a significant difference to community safety and young people's wellbeing.   
Community Activations: 
Last year Zeal’s youth workers commenced running activity based pop-ups in Henderson/Massey in order to positively engage young people on the streets. These activations focus on building relationships with disconnected young people and raising awareness about support services available to them in their neighborhood in order to build sustainable pathways for youth development. Zeal has networks with other local youth agencies, health promotion agencies, employment pathway organizations and youth development focused companies. Through targeted activations we connect young people with appropriate services that meet their needs.
 
We would like to build on the success of these community activations and seek funding to run three activations over the next 12 months. Activations include an organized activity (ranging from basketball competitions, an open mic, talent quest, a creative arts workshop, graffiti boards, live performances etc), a free street BBQ, a chill out area and music. Each activation is staffed by at least three youth workers who can connect with rangatahi and broker a pathway to other service providers. Ideally other service providers are also on onsite, so connections can be made more efficiently. The events are smoke-free, zero waste and include healthy food options.
 
Partnerships in Henderson/Massey include Corban Estate Arts Centre, Kakano Youth Arts, Sport Waitakere, Ranui 135, Massey Matter, Massey Community Trust, MPHS, WAVES, Library, Community Waitakere, Eco Matters, Panuku, Crescendo Trust Aotearoa, Waitakere Alternative Education Syndicate, Vaka Tautua, Health West, TYMS.
 
Possible activation sites include Panuku site at Civic Centre, Triangle Park, Falls car park, Tui Glen Reserve, Corner of Swanson Rd and Rathgar Rd, Te Atatu Peninsula Community Centre, Henderson Library, Henderson Air Bridge. Zeal's focus is to provide a strong coordinated community wide response to vulnerable and disconnected young people across the region.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

Approximately 80% of young people encountered on the streets are Maori or Pasifika. Zeal has a strong commitment to bicultural practice and acknowledges the importance of tikanga Maori when working with Maori. Built into our models of practice is a Maori
adaptation of the Circle-of-Courage emphasising a journey from Whanaungatanga (Belonging) to Tohungatanga (Mastery), Tohungatanga to Mana Motuhake (Independence), and Mana Motuhake to Atawhai (Generosity). Zeal also adopts Te Whare Tapa Whā health development model which is informed by the notion that a young person is like a Wharenui (meeting house) and recognises the importance of holistic development across the spheres of taha tinana (physical health), taha wairua (spiritual health), taha whānau (family health) and taha hinengaro (mental health).

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - The West Auckland Street Youth Work project and community activations are primarily conducted on the streets and in public spaces. Zeal’s West Auckland youth facility fully caters to people with disabilities - it is wheelchair accessible with disabled toilets.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

Youth workers act as role models for young people. We endeavour that all our youth workers are smoke-free when on the streets.
Community activations will be zero waste.
Healthy food options will be present including water.
Active lifestyles will be promoted and activation activities will include physical games such as 3 on 3 basketball.

Additional information to support the application:

As we submit this application NZ is on Level 4 lockdown. This week our team has been busy connecting with young people who are part of our wider whanau. We have care plans in place and have identified potential risks and challenges. This is an anxious time for many so we’re reaching out daily through online group chats and direct messages. We will start a series of online competitions and challenges to continue to engage and support young people. We believe the community activations in this proposal will be something that brings encouragement and connection once this situation has passed.

Project: CTOA Link Up

Location:

Tamaki Makaurau - currently we are working remotely.  Our main centre is 126 Awaroa Rd, Sunnyvale, but we also work out of Henderson, Te Atatu, Glen Innes

Summary:

We intend to run a series of programmes called Link Up.  These programmes will provide a variety of options and pathways into the creative industries.  Groups of young people will be brought  together (remotely at this stage) and will work with one of our mentors (and an apprentice). It is called Link Up as the courses are over a series of modules, on certain days the groups can link with other groups to cover a similar subject. This gives opportunity to make connections with other creatives and provides insight into some of the other courses on offer. During and after the course, they will be supported by a youth worker who will focus on wellbeing and mental health.

Expertise:

We have been mentoring youth in the Auckland area for the past eight years, both one on one and in group situations.  For the past few years we have run short courses in the school holidays similar to these.  We have seen huge interest and felt that to have a more formalised programme of ongoing series of Link Up courses would be beneficial and reach out to more rangatahi in Auckland.  Our mentors are all experts in their respective fields, they are police vetted and have been trained in youth mentoring.

The project delivers young people many future possibilities for career pathways and further education.  Students are expected to gain transferable skills and knowledge for creative industry careers and pathways for further study.  Our young people will be supported while within the programme and assisted with the transition into tertiary education, employment or back into mainstream schooling. We serve to offer our young people the opportunity to rethink and re-evaluate their life choices leading them to more positive and financially responsible future outcomes in life.  This has positive benefits for the wider community as we work to reduce the number of NEET rangatahi in our community.  
 
Key Outcomes
* Closer communities that create and ensure cultural models of care, put community and whanau first and increase youth voice and pathways.
* Improved psychological and emotional well-being in our young people involved with the CTOA.
* Young people learn transferable skills in music, film and photography that they can apply to further their education or employment.
* Develop experience, confidence and create an income as they are paid for their performances.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

CTOA has been working with rangatahi in the Henderson-Massey area since its inception in 2012.  Our work and reach has increased considerably over the past 8 years.  We are now recognised as a reputable provider of youth development services in the area.  Our Link Up courses have been put together to provide even greater reach, increasing the number of people we work with and giving the young people more options and pathways into the creative industries.  We also have close connections with other youth development organisations in the area to ensure that we collaborate where possible to ensure that we all provide wrap around care to our rangatahi.

The majority of the young people we work with are Maori or Pasifika.  We also have a number of young Maori who are currently training to be apprentices.   CTOA follows the Te Whare Taoa Wha Model. This model provides guidance to ensure that our programmes are culturally appropriate, holistic and meet the needs of our young people and their Whanau. We believe that if we nurture the health, hopes and skills of young people, their potential to improve the world is unbounded. If they are healthy, they can take the best advantage of every opportunity to learn.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - All the centres where we mentor are accessible to people with a disability.  We work closely with all the young people we work with to help reduce any barriers they have to attend mentoring sessions.

Target ethnic groups:

Legal status:

Activity focus:

Community

Conflicts of interest:

None identified

Project: OUTLine 0800 Peer Support Phoneline

Location:

OUTLine office (31 Hargreaves St)/remotely across Auckland

Summary:

OUTLine runs a peer support phone line for LGBTQI+ identified people and their friends and whānau to call for information, support or for links in their community. Friends and whānau call OUTLine for guidance on how to best support their loved one, and to get more information about their identity. OUTLine provides volunteers call takers with training, regular supervision, and ongoing support so that they can provide well informed and safe peer support.

Expertise:

OUTLine has been running as a phone support line in various forms since 1972 and now we receive calls from all over Aotearoa. Over the past year we have received over 3,000 calls from people around Aotearoa. Our counselling service has been running for over seven years now, with the clinical knowledge and practice from that service helping to further grow and improve the peer support practices that OUTLine has for our phone line.

Promotion:

The service will be promoted across OUTLine’s social media accounts, OUTLine’s website, and the social media and websites of other LGBTQI+ community organisations, who refer to OUTLine. The Local Board’s contribution will be acknowledged through our annual report, and year-round on our website. We will do a post on social media dedicated to acknowledging the Local Board’s support.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Developing community and connection for LGBTQI+ people, reducing isolation and loneliness. Our phoneline is an avenue for LGBTQI+ people to reach out and connect with their peers, helping reduce feelings of loneliness. Many of the regular callers to OUTLine are older people who may not be able to access other forms of community connection easily, for example attending events. OUTLine can be a real lifeline for these folks, who just want to connect with someone who has a similar life experience and can understand what’s going on for them.
Growing the capacity of LGBTQI+ communities, by training and supporting volunteers. OUTLine’s phoneline is a service that’s by our community, for our community. We invest in the training and support of our volunteers, which builds up their skills, and overall grows the capacity of our communities. Further, volunteering is an important way that people can develop their sense of belonging to LGBTQI+ communities, and grow their own confidence and sense of identity. The Youth’12 study showed that LGBTQI+ youth are more likely than their peers to be volunteering for their community, and OUTLine provides an important way for them to get involved.

 

 

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

Henderson-Massey

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

OUTLine trains volunteers from within LGBTQI+ communities, teaching them the skills needed to effectively support others over the phone. Our volunteers affirm and celebrate the diversity of and within LGBTQI+ communities. For our volunteers from the Henderson-Massey Local Board area, they are helping build that connection for their own local community.

 

Collaborating organisation/individual

Role

New Zealand Aids Foundation

We rent our office space in Hargreaves Street, St Mary’s Bay, from NZAF. They are located in the same building, enabling smooth collaboration between our organisations.

RainbowYOUTH

We work closely with RainbowYOUTH on a number of projects, and we jointly deliver a transgender peer support service. We refer young people who call to RainbowYOUTH, and similarly RainbowYOUTH refers people to the OUTLine phone line.

Body Positive

OUTLine works closely with Body Positive. All new volunteers will visit Body Positive as part of their training to learn more about their services to enable referrals.

 

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

OUTLine is committed to honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi, and prioritising the needs of takatāpui (LGBTQI+-identifying Māori) within LGBTQI+ communities. Through our recruitment process we ask candidates how they would contribute to OUTLine’s journey towards biculturalism. Through our advocacy work, advocating for the needs of LGBTQI+ communities, we consider how the needs of takatāpui may be different, and incorporate this into our messages.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our building is accessible for people with mobility difficulties, and we are also rolling out volunteer from home options. By providing support via phone we are able to reach people who may be housebound or otherwise find face to face support challenging.
 
OUTLine is also aware of the accessibility challenges a phone line can present, specifically to deaf communities and those with some speech impediments. OUTLine has a project establishing online chat to overcome this barrier. OUTLine is proud of how adaptable and committed to accessibility our face to face counselors are. If a service user notifies us about an accessibility issue with our organization we do our best to make sure they have full access to our service.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice

We have signs around our work space indicating that we are a smoke free office. OUTLine has a policy around being smokefree including creating a culture which facilitates smoking cessation. Our volunteers have information about services like Quitline that they can refer to if a caller is asking for support around smoking cessation.
 
We have clearly labeled recycling bins in our office kitchen and actively encourage our staff to recycle. We also have a compost bin for compostable items, which significantly reduces our waste.
 
At all volunteer events we provide a range of kai and drinks, and always have fruit and water available. Most catered events at OUTLine will be fully vegan or vegetarian. We aim for events to be zero waste.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$30000.00

Requesting grant for:

We are seeking funding to help cover the costs of running the phone line, in particular the costs of volunteer training, support and clinical supervision. We are also seeking support for some of the other associated costs such as advertising and promoting the service, stationery, insurance, IT costs and office expenses.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We’d likely need to reduce the number of initial comprehensive training sessions that we do, so we’d have fewer volunteers, and therefore fewer costs associated with volunteers (clinical supervision, support costs).

Activity focus:

Community

Conflicts of interest:

Project: Whanau Links

Location:

Level 1, 3055 Great North Rd, New Lynn and at various locations in the community

Summary:

Our programme provides contextualised foundation literacy skills for the target group designed to increase their ability to participate in community life, pursue further study opportunities and eventually access employment. The learning programme of each student is developed from the initial assessment and negotiated learning plan, then content and context are determined by each student’s literacy needs and learning priorities. Students enrol and attend as many hours as they can manage according to their life circumstances, and stay for as long as they need our help.

Expertise:

We have been providing literacy and numeracy in Waitakere for over 40 years. Our tutors are experienced specialist adult literacy tutors with a suite of qualifications. We have around 18 paid and volunteer tutors with a combined passion and experience of around 250 years.
Our average staff retention rate is 11 years. We have a stable, diverse, highly qualified and committed workforce.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

By accessing literacy assistance, adults learn skills that enable them to become independent and contributing members of society and in their whanau. Many adults with literacy needs feel isolated and disconnected. Literacy assistance gives them the confidence to help their children with their homework and support their school, for example, to become job ready and seek employment, to set new goals for themselves such as accessing higher education, and to break the intergenerational cycle of poverty and disadvantage. Literacy gives people hope.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

Communities are strong when the individuals in it are equipped to deal with all challenges that come their way.  The neediest refugees and migrants may arrive in New Zealand with many disadvantages by way of funds, language, education, qualifications, ability to start work, knowledge of our culture and systems, trauma and learning difficulties, family disruption, health.  Our basic literacy service helps them address many issues by introducing them to the language, culture and systems they must navigate to live here successfully.  Our students thrive in a warm and friendly environment and leave with skills which help them navigate everyday life in New Zealand and may lead to further education, work or vocational training.

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori focus - tikanga (practises), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

Partly. As a bicultural organisation  our kaupapa is based on tikanga Maori:
# Manaakitanga - Students come to us with a wide range of cultures, life experiences, skills and knowledge to be affirmed and respected. Working relationships are built upon mutual respect and trust.
# Rangatiratanga - Literacy provision focuses on empowering people to set goals, take control of their own learning, to develop independence.
# Whanaungatanga - Provision is informal and community based. It ensures personal care and support for our learners, staff and stakeholders.
# Kawanatanga – A wide range of learning opportunities is provided to meet individual and group needs. Provision will be learner-centred, addressing the needs of individual learners.
We begin the day with a karakia.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - There is a lift in our building to our first floor premises, or we have a learning room downstairs. There is an accessible toilet. We take steps to ensure that anyone with a disability (and one of our tutors does) is not at all disadvantaged.
We also welcome people with an intellectual disability who nevertheless have a goal to improve their education.

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice

We provide separate waste bins for compost, recycling and rubbish, use clear signage and encourage staff and students to minimise waste.
Fresh chilled water, fruit and healthy snacks are provided for our tutors and learners.

We would also appreciate a contribution towards the rent of our building to maintain our central New Lynn premises which are ideal for our service - accessible by train, bus and car, with a lift and air conditioning and heating to provide a comfortable place to accommodate
our tutors and learners.

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

Our project will go ahead because we have a commitment to our community.  We apply to various philanthropic trusts and the TEC to enable us to help as many learners as we can.  We will make the project fit whatever our budget is.

Additional information to support the application:

An update on our financial position:  After deciding to remain indpendent from Literacy Aotearoa in 2018, in 2019 we funded all our provision with grants and reserves, in the absence of government funding.
We applied to the TEC for provider status and for basic ACE in Communities funding, which we received. However with that funding, our income is still much lower than previous levels.  
We have strategies which we are working on to restore much of that funding, which is medium-term goal, and in the meantime we have budgeted for the same level of funding in 2020 as last year.

Summary:

RainbowYOUTH offers a diverse selection of peer support groups where queer, intersex and gender diverse young people can be themselves in a safe, friendly social environment with likeminded people. Rangatahi who need more support get referred to our support team by facilitators. Five of our groups are run out of our Auckland drop-in centre on Edinburgh Street in the CBD; an additional four are run in East, North, South and West Auckland. All RainbowYOUTH groups are run by young people on a volunteer basis; RainbowYOUTH runs hui each year to train these facilitators. The groups are: 
I.D., G.Q., Star*, ArtistRY, and Asian Peer Support Group (all central) SouthPride (Papakura)
OutEast (Howick)
QWest (Henderson)
Queer 4 Shore (Takapuna)

Expertise:

RainbowYOUTH has been delivering peer support groups since its inception 30 years ago. Over this time thousands of young people have benefited from group support and our focus on safety and youth-centric governance have ensured that the popularity of these groups has grown massively over this time. Over the years RainbowYOUTH has developed an efficient structure around the administration of these groups, including employing a Volunteer Coordinator whose role is to ensure all group facilitators receive the training and support they need. We have well-realised and documented health and safety procedures around these meetings, evidenced by our MSD accreditation, and provide a budget per meeting for kai and any other needs.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

RainbowYOUTH aims to facilitate peer support groups which are safe, relaxed and fun environments for queer and gender diverse youth to socialise. All RainbowYOUTH events are drug, alcohol and smoke free and facilitated by trained staff or volunteers. With this foundation we aim to achieve the following outcomes for our young people:
- Encourage volunteering and grow leadership skills and confidence
- Increase connectedness and community
- Reduce negative mental health outcomes
- Reduce the isolation that young people can feel and allow them to explore their identities in a safe environment
- Have facilitated discussions about issues affecting them
- Provide a fun social environment where they can participate in hobbies or activities they enjoy with their rainbow peers
 
Long term, as an organisation we wish to lower the negative wellbeing outcomes for all intersex, queer and gender diverse youth. As all RainbowYOUTH groups are run by-youth for-youth, they are a vital form of support which is community-led and engaged on an appropriate level for the children and young adults who attend them. Ultimately the community as a whole will benefit hugely from healthy, happy and engaged rangatahi who are confident in their identities and in themselves.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      diversity and difference is embraced and valued

The QWest peer support group in Henderson meets these priorities by celebrating the diversity of queer, intersex and gender diverse young people in West Auckland. Young people who attend are able to build community and confidence in a safe space where they are free to express themselves. They are able to access volunteer opportunities and referral to other support structures. Above all they are free to make new friends, have fun and be themselves freely, allowing them to feel like they belong. QWest meets fortnightly and an average of 13 young people attend each meeting.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

One of RainbowYOUTH's core values is honouring Te Tiriti o Waitangi. For our peer support groups, we teach facilitators about Aotearoa's colonial history, and provide guidance for incorporating tikanga Māori into group meetings, for example using karakia. We have takatāpui (LGBTIQ+ Māori) young people attending peer support groups, and our facilitators create space for group members to bring their cultural identity into the group alongside their LGBTIQ+ identity. We are exploring having a takatāpui specific youth peer support group, and are being led by takatāpui in this space.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - RainbowYOUTH's Auckland drop-in centre is accessible, with wheelchair access and disability-friendly fittings in the bathrooms such as metal handles. We have been accredited by Be.Accessible as a Bronze level organisation for accessibility, and have made a number of improvements based on their feedback. We pride ourselves on providing a safe and welcoming space friendly to all forms of diversity in Auckland's queer and gender diverse whānau including neurological and physical disability.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice

RainbowYOUTH is a smokefree organisation. All of the groups are smokefree, and facilitators actively promote that aspect of the group at meetings. There are smokefree posters around the drop-in centre, and we provide access to cessation services where needed. We have a thorough waste management system at RainbowYOUTH, with recycling and composting which reduces our overall waste. We educate volunteers about waste management, how to compost, etc. We are currently developing a healthy food and drink policy, and have signs around the drop-in centre encouraging people to drink water, and letting them know they can drink water at the drop-in centre. We always have a variety of kai available at groups and events, including fruit.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$18722.00

Requesting grant for:

Funding contributes to the total budget for each group, which includes many items including kai, supervision costs, koha, stationery and printing, volunteer reimbursement, venue costs, hui costs, workshop costs, travel costs and staff time. Please see attached full budget breakdown for full details. Funding from Local Boards will be directed specifically toward:
- The food budget ($25 per meeting)
- Volunteer/facilitator koha ($10 per facilitator per meeting)
- Venue costs
- End-of-year volunteer appreciation
- Facilitator supervision
- Stationery and printing costs

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

Any shortfall in funding will be covered through RainbowYOUTH reserves or possibly future funding applications. RainbowYOUTH is primarily funded through grants and government contracts as well as donations, and therefore untagged reserves are limited. In order to ensure our peer support programme is sustainable, it is important that we seek out reliable funding streams in order to maintain and grow our services.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Online sessions linked to the project will be communicated both visually and through sound, and will enable both visually impaired and hearing impaired to be able to access the content from wherever they are. No undue travel is necessary. All online sessions will also be made accessible to them at any point - so they can log in and view or listen when convenient to them. 
Physical events linked to the project will include facilities for people with disabilities as provided by venues. Care will be taken by SEA to look for and book only venues that provide a breadth of these facilities to enable easy and appropriate access for all people with disabilities.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice

These will options will be promoted in each of SEA's communications related to the physical events and online activities (webinars and workshops). 
They will be communicated early on through all collateral, including SEA's website.
This will also be communicated during the actual physical event and/or online sessions (webinars and workshops) by way of introducing the session and also encouraging communities to practice the principles of a healthy environment. 
In other words, it will become part of the DNA of the project and its promotions from day one.

Financial information

Amount requested:

Requesting grant for:

Elements of project delivery including, 
- Purchase of the webinar platform for online events and related video editing
- Venue, food and facilitator cost for the physical events
- Related event logistics and security
- Part of the contractor costs involved in delivering the project
- Project management

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

Depending on the funding amount provided, the project plan will be amended to reduce the total number of physical events and online sessions. This is not ideal though, since our goal is to reach as many people as possible to empower them.
The goal of the project is to increase education and sector growth for social enterprises and small businesses, and to encourage innovation and entrepreneurship. Thus, all attempts will be made not to increase the ticket costs, or even have a ticket cost.

Cost of participation:

We are looking at offering subsidised tickets at just $10 in some areas like Waitemata and Albert-Eden. For most other regions of Auckland, the intention is to allow people to join events without any fee. We want these events to be inclusive and as broad reaching as possible. Keeping them fee-free will enable more in the community to participate and learn.

Project: Body Positive Men's Wellness Retreat

Location:

Vaughan Park Anglican Retreat Centre

Summary:

The Body Positive Men's Wellness Retreat is an annual pillar of our peer support programme. Up to 50 men living with HIV take a weekend to build community, socialise, participate in wellness activities and get active. As our members are overwhelmingly on benefits and unable to work due to their status, the Retreat is for many the only chance they will get in the year to take part in community activities, get outdoors and even just to relax. The Retreat is a targeted event: 87% of Body Positive members are gay men and are marginalised due to their sexuality as well as their HIV status.

Expertise:

Body Positive has been running the Men's Retreat successfully for over 10 years. Although we have begun to charge a registration fee, it does not come near to covering costs and thus we have to cap the numbers of participants at 50. These spots fill up every year. Sustainable funding would allow more people who wish to attend to go, and potentially reduce the financial burden on our members.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

The stigma associated with HIV and gay men in particular produces numerous barriers. By engaging with people directly we are able to remove these barriers. This is ongoing urgent support provided to our most vulnerable members that are dealing with homelessness, addiction, abuse, stigma, and mental health. By engaging in these social supports we are then able to engage them in medical care ensuring that they lead healthy and productive lives. Our Auckland peer support programme encompasses regular support groups but is also book-ended by the Men's Wellness Retreat, which is a life-affirming and invaluable chance to come together as a community, to holistically seek health through empowering outdoor activity, and relaxing wellness treatments such as massage and podiatry. For many participants the Retreat is the only chance they will get to come together as a community throughout the year, as people living with HIV are still heavily stigmatised, even within the LGBTQIA+ community itself. Feedback from participants is overwhelmingly positive, and participants say that their feelings of isolation are reduced and they are left feeling like a valued part of a community.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      people are more active

87% of Body Positive members are gay men, and experience the double stigma of living with HIV and being homosexual. The Body Positive Men's Wellness Retreat encourages this marginalised group to seek wellness through physical activity by encouraging exercise and outdoor activity. At the 2020 retreat we engaged the Sir Peter Blake Marine Education and Recreation Centre for on-water sailing activities, and we are committed to encouraging further active outdoor activities in future retreats. These activities challenge the participants' perceptions of their own limits as people living with HIV and build community and self-esteem. 8 participants were from this local board in 2020.

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori participation - Māori priority group, target group, high representation or Māori staff delivering

The constitution contains directives to co-opt additional members on the basis of Māori representation, to ensure that the voices which are heard are as diverse as possible. We provide direct support to our Māori and Pacific Island members through our representative group Tinana Ora. 11.36% of our membership self-identifies as Māori. 12 of the 50 participants at the 2020 Men's Wellness Retreat were Māori.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - We provide support services for people living with HIV which is classed as a disability under the Human Rights Act. We provide support for people to access services and support without stigma or judgement or discrimination due to their condition. We also have clients that attend with other conditions in addition to their HIV diagnoses including other disabilities. The venue is accessible for people with mobility issues and transport to and from the venue is provided.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

Body Positive as an organisation is smoke, drug and alcohol free. As a health organization we are actively promoting healthy lifestyle choices through our holistic approach to HIV support which includes wellness activities and advice. The Wellness Retreat provides healthy food options for participants, and includes outdoor physical activity as a key part of the curriculum, which was provided in 2020 by Sir Peter Blake Marine Education and Recreation Centre.

Financial information

Amount requested:

$15000.00

Requesting grant for:

We are requesting funding support toward:
- Venue hire (inclusive of catering and accommodation)
- A suitable outdoor activity provider
- Wellness activities (podiatry and massage)

If part funded, how would you make up the difference:

We have previously funded the project through Body Positive reserves. The 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, and the loss of our contract with MAC AIDS has meant that our operational funding has taken a serious hit. Although we are confident that the 2021 event can go ahead still, it is necessary to seek out more sustainable funding avenues to ensure that valuable events and activities like this can continue to be run going forward. We also hope that we will not have to burden our community by raising registration prices further, or restricting participant numbers.

Cost of participation:

We charge a registration fee which is then means-adjusted (for instance if the member is currently on a benefit.) This is capped at $100.00 currently.

Activity focus:

Community

Conflicts of interest:

Project: Volunteer Support Worker programme

Location:

Victim Support North Shore, Waitakere, Auckland West, Counties Manukau Central , Counties Manukau Pukekohe

Summary:

Victim Support works mainly with Police referrals to provide a first response service to people distressed by trauma caused by serious crime, sudden death, injury or natural disaster. Depending on each victim's needs assessment they may need our support over months and years. A serious incident such as a homicide will involve us with a lot of affected people and a significant number of supportive contacts made.

Expertise:

Victim Support is well established throughout New Zealand as the main support agency for victims of crime and trauma. Our  volunteers go through a rigorous selection process and receive intensive initial and specialist training that continues at regular intervals.
 
 
As New Zealand’s principal specialist in support for people affected by homicide Victim Support holds the national suicide postvention contract for the Ministry of Health. The extraordinary dedication of our volunteers enables us to provide access to in-home emotional support after trauma, with face to face contact prioritized and available 24/7. These aspects combine to make Victim Support a unique organisation, both in New Zealand and to a large degree also globally.

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

Victim Support has an established role in the Greater Auckland region's social development and building a stronger more resilient community. Our support reduces the chance of repeat victimisation, post-traumatic stress disorder and depression. We put victims at the heart of the justice system and make justice more accessible.

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      strong community organisations are making a difference

Without the right support, severe trauma can have devastating effects on victims’ families/whānau, relationships, and careers. Timely, personalised support and intervention helps victims to keep contributing to their community in their paid work, keep families/whānau together, reduce the ongoing economic and social costs of mental health issues like post-traumatic stress disorder, and – particularly in areas like suicide and family violence – help to reduce the future recurrence of some of our society’s toughest issues.
 
Our volunteer programme has proven that strong communities come from within. Our volunteers benefit from our training programme as they gain skills which can enhance personal study and career pathways. They get to use the strengths & skills which come from their own learning and self-awareness to help improve people’s lives and their value to others is acknowledged by victims, Victim Support & Police

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori focus - tikanga (practises), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

Te Whare Tapa Wha is our overarching framework where we tackle a holistic set of needs. A persons needs are seen as having four dimensions: Te Taha Tinana (physical wellbeing),Te Taha Whānau (family wellbeing), Te Teha Hinengaro (psychological wellbeing). Our initial training takes place on a marae and this is extremely important in grounding new Support Workers in this service delivery model along with gaining the endorsement of local Maori.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our service prioritises face to face visits with is important with people who lack mobility or are housebound as it can remove the risk of social isolation at a time of vulnerability.

The festival also provides opportunities to learn new skills in an arts and craft activity and try something new.
It is also a chance to meet new people and make friends and feel a sense of belonging.
It is a great 3 day event for schools, groups and the wider community to enjoy and participate in.
This year is our 10th festival!!!

Our fliers and publicity material contain the council logo and we thank all our sponsors/funders during the event in a power point and have the MC to announce and thank sponsors and funders.

 

Community benefits

Identified community outcomes:

 

InterACT is unique in that it is the only festival of this kind held in New Zealand. The event attracts numbers of people from across the region and overseas. It receives good media coverage that often mentions how suitable the West is for festival and other events. It creates an atmosphere where people with and without a disability can perform, participate and enjoy together. It should achieve; accessibility, be a safe and fun event that makes people want to return next year

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

Henderson-Massey

·      arts, events and cultural activities reflect our many heritages

We have groups and individuals who are working on their art or performances throughout the year to present at InterACT. They know they will be in an environment that supports their needs. Our participants consist of different ethnicities and cultures which is displayed and presented at the interact festival when they perform their cultural pieces such as waiatas, kapa hakas, songs and dances. We also hold an art exhibition and it is here, we see culture and ethnicities woven and portrayed in different art forms. We rely heavily on volunteers who come from the local areas, church groups and corporate groups to deliver such a big event and approach local businesses for donations or help in kind.

We also use Shed 1 which is now owned by Te Pou theatre and ask their staff to join us at the festival.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - We don't charge for admission (we did in our first year and found it was a bar to participation) We operate a policy of inclusiveness so anyone who wants to run a workshop or perform on stage, we support to do so. We hire portaloos and provide a private room for changing facilities for adults, ramps to make it easy for people in wheelchairs to get to grounds that are elevated, we provide Deaf interpreters and are also currently in the process of creating a user friendly video to help people get a heads up of what's happening and how to get around the venue.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages, Healthy options for food and drink, including water as the first choice, Encouraging active lifestyles including movement or fitness programmes

we have very few people within the disability sector who smoke and it has never been an issue at Interact
We will hire extra bins and place them at convenient places throughout the event venue
Participants bring their own lunch and water bottles
We hold hip hop workshops and let people know that they can continue these in regular weekly classes

Alignment with local board priorities:

 

 

Henderson-Massey

·      arts, events and cultural activities reflect our many heritages

Kids for Kids is 100% Kiwi As, with every song performed written and recorded by NZ Artists. With a term of music work provided by Kids for Kids to each registered school, all students involved spend weeks learning about NZ Music and the Composers, Song Writers and Artists who create the songs we sing together on stage. Balancing between the classics and the latest hits, Kids for Kids introduces and exposes our kids to some of the greatest kiwiana songs we have. This years show 'Big Aroha' also host a selection of Te Reo songs, embracing Maori culture from start to finish of the show.
 
National Young Leaders Day - Every year, thousands of the country’s brightest students and their teachers attend a National Young Leaders Day. Schools select students who demonstrate leadership potential and qualities to attend NYLD. NYLD events include motivational talks from great New Zealand leaders, question times, videos, music and interactive activities. The speaking team consists of leaders in business, sport, politics, community service, science and the arts. There is a strong sense on the day that the baton is being passed, as an older generation of leaders imparts their wisdom into the emerging generation of young leaders. The message of the day develops, as students are challenged not only to reach their own personal goals but the goals of those they are leading

 

Collaborating organisation/individual

Role

Our Artists (Jackie Clarke and Nathan King) a nd Music Directors (Brooke Baker and Chris Lam Sam)

Our artirsts and our MD's help create the sho w, carefully selecting songs, re-writing music , putting together resource to be sent to sch ools to dive into each song as they learn ahe ad of the show.

Salvation Army

At each Kids for Kids show we encourage our choir members to be global citizens and bring a canned food item for kids in need. These are collected and distributed by the Salvation Army.

 

Demographics

Māori outcomes:

·      Māori focus - tikanga (practises), mātauranga (knowledge), reo (language)

This year’s Kids for Kids is all about celebrating Aotearoa’s ‘Big Aroha’. We  aspire to integrate Te Reo language across the performance, with some song lyrics that are 100% in Te Reo like Tarakihi , and other songs that have a kiwi / te reo balance like Big Aroha by The Slacks and Whaling / We Know The Way Dave Dobbyn / Lin-Manuel Miranda & Opetaia Foa'i.
National Young Leaders Day will be employing a Te Reo specialist to assist us with translating our workbook given to all students to include English and Maori text. Te Reo Maori will also be used on the projectors to enhance the bilingual language use.

Accessible to people with disabilities

Yes - Our venues are all accessible and at Kids for Kids the stage is accessible and frequently includes young people with disabilities participating alongside their mates from school. Where needed, carers are also invited on stage to assist, ensuring the young person has a great experience. National Young Leaders Day is an inclusive event for all accessibility students.

Target ethnic groups:

All/everyone

Healthy environment approach:

·      Promote smoke-free messages, Include waste minimisation (zero waste) messages

As our event champions young people, with rehearsals during school time - the venue is treated like schools grounds with all personnel involved with the event / teachers / schools smoke-free.
All schools are asked to take any rubbish created from school lunches back with them.

“My first experience as a Kids for Kids Choir teacher was in 1996, and I've lost count of the shows I've done since. It is an absolute joy to be able to pass the kids over - in complete trust of their care - to the Kids for Kids stars and staff at the rehearsal and then on the night.
It is the best feeling to communicate to parents that their kids will probably have the best experience of the year!"

Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency Innovating Streets for People pilot fund

File No.: CP2020/05928

 

  

 

Te take mō te pūrongo

Purpose of the report

1.       To provide local boards with an overview of the Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency (Waka Kotahi) Innovating Streets for People pilot fund (ISPF).

2.       To request feedback on projects within your local board area that have been proposed by staff across Auckland Transport (AT), Auckland Council, and Panuku for inclusion in Auckland Council’s application to the ISPF.

Whakarāpopototanga matua

Executive summary

3.       Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency (Waka Kotahi) announced a pilot fund in April 2020 that supports pilot projects and interim improvements for safe active transport. The Innovating Streets Pilot Fund (ISPF) is intended to help councils create more people-friendly spaces through the application of tactical urbanism techniques such as pilots, pop ups and interim projects. While the fund is intended to support pilots that can be rolled out rapidly and at relatively low cost, projects should also be able to demonstrate a pathway to more permanent status, should they prove successful.

4.       Local boards have previously been invited to contribute localised strategic direction and guidance regarding projects that may be suitable to submit for funding. This guidance has been incorporated into the development of a list of potential projects that will be circulated to local boards by 25 May 2020.

5.       Local boards are now invited to provide formal feedback on the list of potential projects within their local area, including their view of which projects are the highest priority.

 

Ngā tūtohunga

Recommendation/s

That the Henderson-Massey Local Board:

a)      delegate authority to chair, C Carter, to provide feedback on the list of local projects proposed as suitable for inclusion in Auckland Council’s application to the Waka Kotahi New Zealand Transport Agency (Waka Kotahi) Innovating Streets Pilot Fund (ISPF) by 12pm on 29 May 2020.

 

Horopaki

Context

6.       On 3 April 2020, Waka Kotahi announced the ISPF, which supports council projects that aim to transition streets to be safer and more liveable spaces. The fund encourages the use of ‘tactical urbanism’ techniques, such as pilots and pop ups - interim treatments that can be delivered within a short timeframe to test and help demonstrate the value of future permanent street changes that make walking and cycling easier. Projects that Waka Kotahi aims to support include:

·   temporary, or semi-permanent, physical changes to streets

·   improvements that test a permanent fix and prototype a street design

·   activations that help communities re-imagine their streets.

7.       There are two application rounds for the ISPF:

·   The first round opened on 3 April and closed on 8 May 2020. Successful applicants are expected to be announced in June 2020

·   The second round opens on 8 June and closes on 3 July 2020 with successful applicants to be announced by the end of July 2020.

8.       Qualifying projects are expected to be delivered by June 2021.

9.       In addition to the two funding rounds, Waka Kotahi is offering support for interventions that specifically relate to Covid-19. Auckland Transport (AT) is leading an emergency response programme in conjunction with Auckland Council and are applying for a funding subsidy for the costs associated with Covid-19 measures which are already being implemented across Auckland.

10.     The selection process for round one was led by AT. Due to tight timeframes for submission, consultation was not possible. Twelve projects were submitted to Waka Kotahi for consideration. All these projects come from existing programmes previously approved by Auckland Council and align well with Governing Body and local board strategic transport priorities.

11.     If these projects are awarded funding from Waka Kotahi, comprehensive stakeholder engagement will occur throughout the planning and delivery of each project, as per Waka Kotahi’s selection criteria.

12.     For round two ISPF funding, a project team has been established across Auckland Council, AT and Panuku and a process developed to identify potential projects and take them through to a finished application.

13.     On 8 May 2020, local boards were invited to contribute localised strategic direction and guidance regarding projects that may be suitable to submit for funding. This guidance has been incorporated into the development of a list of potential projects circulated to local boards on or before 25 May 2020.

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu

Analysis and advice

14.     The ISPF provides an opportunity for Auckland Council and AT to catalyse positive change across Auckland in line with Auckland Council’s strategic goals of improving walking and cycling options and creating more people-friendly spaces.

15.     The techniques of tactical urbanism supported by the pilot fund represent an innovative change to the typical way in which projects are engaged upon, designed and delivered. Tactical urbanism entails piloting and testing key project elements on a temporary basis, that can generally be rolled out rapidly and at low cost. This constitutes a form of ‘engagement by doing’ and enables the relative success of ideas to be assessed before they are committed to more permanently.

Criteria for the assessment and prioritisation of projects

16.     When providing feedback on the list of potential projects, local boards should keep the following criteria in mind, which will be used by the project team to finalise the list of projects to recommend to the Emergency Committee.

17.     Prioritised projects will:

·    improve transport choices and liveability of a place

·    help mitigate a clear safety issue (related to Deaths and Serious Injuries at a specific location)

·    be effective at:

reducing vehicle speed (to 30km/hr or less), and/or

creating more space for people on our streets, and/or

making walking and cycling more attractive

·    use temporary pilots, pop ups or treatments as a pathway to permanent change in the future

·    contribute to more equitable access to opportunities and essential services, particularly in areas with low levels of travel choice

·    support mode shift to low-carbon modes

·    support Māori outcomes i.e.

adopt a design or project approach founded on Māori principles

help advance Māori wellbeing, e.g. active Māori participation, improved access to marae, kura, kohanga, papakāinga, employment.

·    test key elements or is designed to generate community support for the ‘parent’ project

·    be part of an existing planned and budgeted project (AC projects only)

·    demonstrate the importance of the project within the current AT work programme (AT projects only)

·    demonstrate ability to deliver

·    demonstrate strong likelihood of project delivery by June 2021

·    demonstrate co-design approach involving key stakeholders and community, including:

support from the relevant local board(s) and stakeholders

support from local community/stakeholders (e.g. business association)

·    display clear process, including milestones, cost, monitoring and evaluation, and identification of risks and mitigation

·    demonstrate value for money

·    demonstrate opportunity to improve efficiency, or reduce risks associated with future permanent upgrades.

Tauākī whakaaweawe āhuarangi

Climate impact statement

18.     The transport sector is the largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions in the Auckland region with around 40 per cent of Auckland’s total emissions. Increased support and prioritisation of ‘no and low’ emissions modes of transport such as active transport, micro-mobility modes and public transport, will help reduce these emissions.

19.     The interventions supported by the Innovating Streets for People pilot fund enable a reduction of transport emissions, which would support Auckland Council’s ability to achieve its climate goals and is well aligned with the draft Te Tāruke-ā-Tāwhiri: Auckland’s Climate Action Framework, and with the in-principle changes to this framework endorsed by the Environment and Climate Change Committee (resolution number ECC/2020/12).

Ngā whakaaweawe me ngā tirohanga a te rōpū Kaunihera

Council group impacts and views

20.     Auckland Council and AT are following an aligned approach for the ISPF submission and are working together to develop joint application packages.

21.     Relevant parts of the council, including Ngā Mātārae; the Auckland Design Office; the Development Programme Office; Libraries; the Southern Initiative; Arts, Community and Events; Parks, Sports and Recreation; Plans and Places, and Panuku, have been engaged to prepare and collate funding proposals for the second round.

22.     If a project application is successful, there will be a need to implement, coordinate and monitor the outcomes of projects that are funded by the ISPF. This would be jointly coordinated by AT and staff from across the Auckland Council family.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe

Local impacts and local board views

23.     Staff captured informal local board views earlier this month by inviting local boards to contribute localised strategic direction and guidance regarding projects that may be suitable to submit for funding. This guidance has been incorporated into the development of the list of potential projects.

24.     The types of projects that Waka Kotahi seek to promote through this fund will have positive impacts on local communities in terms of the outcomes that are reflected in the assessment criteria.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori

Māori impact statement

25.     Māori are likely to benefit from interventions that support safer and more accessible active transport in Auckland. This is because Māori are over-represented in pedestrian-related crashes and tend to live in parts of Auckland where travel choice is poorest. To ensure these interventions benefit Māori equitably, they need to be complemented by meaningful access to active modes such as bicycles and micro-mobility devices, as well as supporting infrastructure such as secure bicycle parking outside main destinations.

26.     The Innovating Streets fund encourages community-led interventions to transform urban spaces into safe and liveable spaces for people. There are opportunities to tap into the creativity and local knowledge of Māori communities in Tāmaki Makaurau to create urban interventions that address community needs and provide a strong sense of place.

27.     Ngā Mātārae, the Southern Initiative and the Independent Māori Statutory Board have been approached for their input into the proposed project list.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea

Financial implications

28.     The proposed high levels of funding assistance from Waka Kotahi (up to 90 per cent of a project’s value) will potentially result in savings for both Auckland Council and AT on any projects that may already have been planned and funded prior to the pilot fund application.

29.     The funding provided by Waka Kotahi for piloting or testing of temporary interventions is likely to reduce design time and increase financial security for permanent improvements in the future. Trialling of real-life options for more permanent activities can also reduce or avoid potential costs associated with the redesign of interventions in case desired outcomes could not be achieved.

30.     There are no financial implications for local boards arising from providing feedback on the list of potential projects, except for those projects proposed by local boards, and which they have proposed to fund themselves.

31.     Local boards that submit an expression of interest for a project need to demonstrate both the ability to fund the temporary project and, if the project does not link to an existing AT, Auckland Council or Panuku funded permanent project, that the local board is able to completely fund the permanent project as well.

Ngā raru tūpono me ngā whakamaurutanga

Risks and mitigations

32.     There is a risk that Auckland Council may not be able to afford the local share of 10 per cent of the project cost needed to implement interventions under the ISPF, particularly given the present circumstances and the need to significantly amend the draft Annual Plan 2020/21. Note that while successful projects will require 10 per cent funding from council, they will bring the benefit of additional funding into Auckland. Similar financial constraints may also apply to AT and Panuku who are also potentially funding projects.

33.     Another risk is the possibility that the implementation of successful Auckland Council projects under the pilot fund will not lead to the desired outcomes for Auckland. To mitigate this risk, staff have developed a set of assessment criteria for projects (see paragraph 17) to ensure strategic alignment with Auckland Council objectives before projects are submitted to Waka Kotahi.

34.     Waka Kotahi’s Criteria 2: Ability to Deliver requires a co-design approach with community and key stakeholders in the development and delivery of projects. The possibility that unified community support for local interventions cannot be achieved through the co-design process within the required timeframe poses an additional risk.

Ngā koringa ā-muri

Next steps

35.     Local boards are requested to provide feedback on the list of local projects proposed as suitable for inclusion in Auckland Council’s application to the ISPF by 12pm (midday) on 29 May 2020.

36.     Each project will then be assessed against the criteria described above, and the project team will produce quality advice for endorsement from an Auckland Council committee.

37.     AT projects will be presented to the AT Board on 3 June 2020 for endorsement.

38.     All projects will be presented to an Auckland Council committee in early June 2020 following which, all interested parties will be notified whether their proposed project has been selected to proceed to an ISPF application.

39.     Following this decision, further work will be undertaken to develop, prepare, and review each project that has been selected for submission to Waka Kotahi.

40.     Completed applications will be submitted to Waka Kotahi prior to the closing date of 3 July 2020.
