It’s the simple things that can help everyone connect to their community.
Wellby is a community-led initiative that’s helping the people of Nelson Tasman to better connect to their communities, improving their wellbeing.
Wellby does this in three simple ways – by hosting relaxed Talking Cafés; by promoting the Found Directory; and empowering members of the public to become Signposters, who help point people to the information they need to socially connect.
Talking Cafés
Wellby Talking Cafés welcome everyone for a relaxed cuppa, and can start someone’s journey to connect with others who enjoy the same things, or to services they need. Using the Found Directory, hosts talk about what’s going on in the community and what resources are available, starting other people’s journey to connect with others.
Found Directory
At the heart of Wellby is the online Found Directory, featuring 1,000+ listings for Nelson Tasman community groups, clubs, organisations and services.
Looking to connect? Find it on Found!
Empowering Signposters
Wellby Signposters are caring community members who help reach those who are hard to reach. Informed about Talking Cafés and trained to use the Found Directory, Signposters help friends, family, colleagues and neighbours find what they are looking for in their community, improving their social connectedness.
