Who We Are

South Alive is an urban rejuvenation project, led by the community, with the goal of identifying the best possible future for South Invercargill and ways to make it happen.

It was established in 2012 with a small steering group, which then held a public meeting in April 2012 to generate ideas and decide priorities. Action teams of volunteers formed around each of the priority areas, and have been working since then to develop and implement projects.

Over the last 3 days, we've had the privilege of hosting Front-Line Training tutors Chloe and John, and their rōpū in a Block Course designed to support people learning about and then attaining, their Learner Licenses.

Our Rangatahi Lead Stacey actually took part in this class with the ākonga and successfully got her License alongside them!

Kapai to Front-Line for their mahi in this kaupapa and we can't wait to hold the space for more classes in the new year.

Contact Front-Line on: reception@front-line.co.nz or call 0800 287 754 to check your eligibility for upcoming classes.
