🌿 Protect the Waitākere Ranges, Petition Handover Event 🌿

Kia ora koutou,

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported the Save the Waitākere Ranges Heritage Area petition so far. The response from our community has been incredible, with now over 7,400 signatures collected.

To mark this important moment, a public petition handover event will be taking place this Sunday:

📍 Arataki Visitor Centre
300 Scenic Drive North, Nihotupu
🗓 Sunday 17 May
⏰ 10:00am

Sir Bob Harvey and Lynne Pillay will officially hand the petition over to local MPs, all of whom have been invited to attend.

This is an important opportunity for our community to stand together and show how deeply we care about protecting the future of the Waitākere Ranges.

If you haven’t signed yet, there’s still time, and if we can reach 10,000 signatures, it would send an even stronger message.

🚨 The petition has been REOPENED
👉 Sign + share:
https://our.actionstation.org.nz/petitions/save-the-waitakere-ranges-heritage-area

Please continue sharing the petition, talking to friends and whānau, and helping spread the word.

The protection of the Waitākere Ranges is at stake. 🌿

Ngā mihi nui,
- WRRA
