All items were laundered, and repairs completed on site. Donated bags of clothing were washed and upcycled by the sewing room workers and given to those most in need, both children and adults. From all of the above, we achieved positive training results and satisfaction from the prisoners that they had made a difference to those people in the community they may have offended. Our Community Garden supplies the following local community groups; Ngāpuhi Aotearoa, North Point Mental Health Trust, Women’s Refuge, Aroha Trust, Ngāti Hine Health, Ngāti Hine Medical – Kawakawa, Teen Mums – Kaikohe, Kaikohe Budget Service.

Ara Poutama has Appendix One - Department of Corrections (C118687) three adopted sites around the country under the Good to Grow partnership. One of these sites is Te Ruapekapeka Pā and battlefield, one of NZ’s top 20 iconic heritage sites. Whangarei CW have partnered with DOC and Te Ruapekapeka Trust to develop the site leading up to the 175th anniversary on 10 January 2021. The last battle between colonial soldiers and Ngapuhi forces led by Kawiti and Hone Heke took place on 10 January 1846. Ruapekapeka Pā is a well-preserved war site with battle features visible on the surface. According to DOC, the construction of Ruapekapeka Pā with tunnels, rifle pits and trenches was recognised in 2008 as a “masterpiece of military engineering” by the Institution of Professional Engineers of NZ. Over the years parts of the site have been turned into grass or overtaken by gorse. The plan is to return the site to as close to its natural state as possible by planting Waitangi Marae Waitangi River Trust eco-sourced species. New paths are planned from the battlefield tracing the route taken by troops attacking the Pā with education stations along the way Whangarei explaining the history.
