Open conversations as we explore local tracks
Walkie Talkie Pōneke

-
Every other weekend
-
About 2hrs loop walk
-
Free and easy
-
All ages and identities welcome
1 email every 2 weeks
It's a simple formula:
Some connection with others, move the body, time immersed in nature, all while finding fresh perspectives of our city. The Walkie-Talkie routine is organised for you. Just get the email and if you want - join us on the day. We'll always respect and welcome the leap of courage it can take to come along and meet new people.
Walkie Talkie is coordinated by Joseph, Marama, Beka and Sylvie




Shared Values / Intentions
Not just a walking group, Walkie-Talkie is conceived as a supportive collective, bringing people together in-person during an era of isolation and fragmentation. We'll aim to craft a quality of manaakitanga and respectful listening. All are welcome, especially if you also value some solidarity in respite from the hustle of competition, separation and inequity. Over time, our walks can be a steady beat of local connection and resilience.
