Past Events
Community Connect Day at UCOL Masterton (Re O-Week): Wed 24 July, 2024
|
UCOL Masterton held a Community Connect Day at The Hub on their campus as part of Semester 2's Re-Orientation Week. Wairarapa Rape & Sexual Abuse were thrilled to be part of this day, along with a number of other community organisations. We had a blast speaking to students and members of the community about our service: sharing resources, engaging in meaningful conversations, and connecting as a community. Congratulations to the winner of our prize draw who claimed their $30 McDonald's voucher!
We really look forward to more events like these. |
Rape Awareness Week: Mon 6 - Sun 12 May, 2024
|
This year, we were very excited to run events throughout Rape Awareness Week (Monday 6th - Sunday 12th May). Our aim was to raise awareness on topics of rape and sexual abuse, let people know of the services available to them if they have been directly or indirectly affected by rape and/or sexual abuse, and to engage in conversations with the people in our community. The chats we had with those who came to say hi were meaningful, and we truly appreciate the support of our community.

Youth Expo at Mākoura College - Thur 29 Feb 2024
|
Mākoura College hosted a Youth Expo, organised by Rangitāne o Wairarapa. This event included a number of local organisations in the Wairarapa community. This was a great opportunity for young people to find out more about the resources available to them, as well as the chance to ask questions and find out more info.
Wairarapa Rape & Sexual Abuse Collective Inc. had a stall at this expo, which included information on some of the issues and concerns we encounter in the sexual violence industry, as well as fact-checking some common myths. Some aspects were similar to topics covered in our Prevention Education programme, which we deliver to local colleges. |
Booklet Launch: Tue 21 Nov 2023
|
On this day, we released our Let's Talk About Rape and Sexual Abuse booklet. This is a resource we share with clients, communities and other organisations throughout Aotearoa to break the silence on rape and sexual abuse.
