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.

We’re inviting our community to be part of this special exhibition celebrating the heritage of South Invercargill. Do you have old photos you’d be willing to share? We’d love to include them in this display.
Images of people, places, and memories from years gone by all help tell the story of our southern suburbs. Submissions from local residents will be showcased throughout the month, bringing our shared history to life.
If you have photos you’d like to contribute, please get in touch — we’d love to display them!
