  • Newsletter January 2015
    Friends of Baring Head Newsletter Visit us on line at http://www.baringhead.org.nz/ or follow us on Facebook January 2015 Number 9 Message from the Chair The regional park at Baring Head provides visitors with all sorts of recreation activities as well as opportunities for volunteer workers to protect and enhance the environment. For some time now the Friends have been thinking how to allow visitors and volunteers to combine their involvement in both of these interests and the first trip we’ve arranged for summer 2014/15 showed us this approach has real possibilities. The Friends arranged with a four-wheel drive group, the Cross Country Group, to transport people over to the Fitzroy Bay beach from the bridge car-park for a small charge. Available seats were in great demand, with some people having to be asked to wait for trips later in the summer. Many of those lucky enough to claim a seat hadn’t previously been to Baring Head and some weren’t even sure where it was! The first part of the trip was to the coast where, after an introductory talk and a chance to look at a new beachcombing booklet (see below in Finding out about what your beachcombing turns up) visitors were able to walk along the beach, finding treasures, removing horned poppy and picking up rubbish. The much- reduced horned poppy density is obvious along the sections of the beach that have been tackled – good work previous visitors and volunteers! On this occasion, more of the weed was cleared, particularly further south and near the climbing rocks.

Summary of Findings Population and projections (2018 Census) ● Population: The WCT region is home to around 469,047 people, or 9.8% of New Zealand’s population. It has five territorial authority areas. Two thirds of the people in the WCT region reside in two of these five areas – Wellington City (45%) and Lower Hutt City (22%). Porirua has 12% of the WCT population, followed by 11% in Kapiti Coast District and 9% in Upper Hutt City. ● Population projection: The WCT region’s population will increase by 11% by 2038. Projected population growth in the region is lower than the projected New Zealand average (20%). This means that by 2038, the WCT region is projected to represent a slightly reduced 9.0% of New Zealand’s population. ● Ethnicity: Porirua (22%) and Lower Hutt (10%) have populations with the highest proportion of Pacific Peoples in the WCT region. Both areas also have the populations with the highest proportion of Māori (18% and 16% respectively). Population projections show that Māori and Pacific communities will grow further in proportion in these two areas by 2038.

Housing New Zealand’s Hutt Valley stock is also amongst the oldest in its portfolio across the country. The refurbishment programmes will renew these homes to ensure Hutt Valley’s social housing tenants live in warm, dry and fit-for-purpose homes. How much is this costing?
