Update: We are currently set up on Quay Street, near the Viaduct, from 10:00pm to 3:00am on Friday and Saturday nights. We are offering the same great services as at Ellen Melville Centre, a safe space, water, lollies, games, first aid and meaningful kōrero and support.We would love to meet you!

Kia ora Auckland!

We are so excited to be expanding into Auckland with a 10 week pilot supported by Auckland Council, starting on the 18th of July.

In Auckland, Take10 will be providing the same great services that make it such a relied upon safe-zone in Central Wellington, games, phone charging, water, transport advice, first-aid medical support, friendly trained volunteers who love to kōrero with anyone who visits, and acting as a safe spot for people to relax, take a break or come to if they are lost or become separated from the people they are with.

We’ll be set up outside Ellen Melville Centre, every weekend over the 10-week pilot from 10:00pm to 3:00am, Friday and Saturday night.

Taking our mahi into a new city and being able to meet, and support a whole new group of people is something we are so looking forward too.

If you are on a night out drop by and say Kia ora, we would love to meet you!

What makes us different?

• Preventative – we catch people before they become victims by stopping them from becoming isolated and helping to reconnect people
• Approach-able – people are often more willing to come to us than the police or emergency services
• Safe – we give people a safe place to go - where they can charge their phones, take a break, sober up, have a chat, get medical support, and get help to get home safely
