Go local and experience community offerings around the Sandringham area

Helping you connect to local matters

Together We Can aims to help support well-being through community connections. We share and social events, community activities you might like to participate in. Our directory offers ways to connect to community groups organisations and local businesses.

We are based at Gribblehirst Hub in Sandringham

Gribblehirst Hub is a friendly, creative space and is the home to many community projects.  The Hub is a member run space where we collaborate, share resources, experience and participate in local activities. 

Member-run activities: craft workshops, yoga, vegan community dinners, and children’s events.

Community projects: Repair Café, Tumeke bike repairs, Timebank Auckland Central, and Food Together veggie bags for $15 on Fridays.

Community garden: Learn sustainable gardening practices.

Market days: Regular events with musicians, stalls, kids’ activities, and face-painting.

Why community matters

When we focus on local projects and activities, we build friendships and develop social connections, creating circles of reciprocity that foster interdependent and resilient communities. As participation grows, we not only find a sense of belonging but also discover solutions that benefit our community, which can ripple out to create a broader societal impact.
