Women support Women

With the opening of the Women's House Te Whare Āwhina Mō Ngā Wāhine Puawai at 44 Trafalgar Street in December 1996, the foundation for the current Women's Centre was laid. The Nelson Women's Centre today continues to be the "dynamic, safe and caring women's house where all women may flourish" that was intended to be set up when our current facility was purchased.

At the Nelson Women's Centre, we help women in change who look for support and connection  to adjust to their new situation.

We listen. We care. We engage.

We help women from all walks of life through practical support and by providing a homely environment where they can create new bonds in a judgement free environment. Women of all ethnicities, incomes, cultures, sexual orientations, gender identities, ages, and abilities are welcome at NWC.

Our practical support includes general advice, counselling, group events, workshops and food. We are open to the public from Monday to Friday by appointment only. Our Centre is also available to be booked for individuals and group meetings.
