There’s a lot to see, do and love about the Wellington region.

Now, thanks to half price fares on buses, trains and the harbour ferry, you can see it all for less. Whether you’re returning to work, hitting the shops, grabbing a coffee or a bite to eat, or whether you fancy a day out on the Kāpiti Coast or the Wairarapa, half price fares bring it all closer for you.

Better yet, they’ve been extended until 31 January 2023.

To book tickets, please contact Kirsty Jackson:
kirsty@caninspire.org.nz or text 021 077 4094

*CanBead is a small NZ charity, with no budget for marketing, so you may not have heard of us. We run free jewellery making workshops for groups of people experiencing illness, trauma or loss, through host agencies such as Hospice, Cancer Society, Sweet Louise, MS Society, Brain Injury Association, Eating Disorders Services, Stroke and Alzheimers Groups, Refugee Services, Grandparents Raising Grandchildren, Wellington Women’s House and more.
*We offer our participants a kitbag at the end of our session, containing tools, equipment and more beads, and we have consistently good feedback, as they are not only distracted in the workshop, but have the means to continue practising the skills they have been taught.
*All our beads are donated, some new, some as old jewellery, which we deconstruct. If you have any questions, please do get in touch.
