Share Kai and Uniting Canterbury Women have joined forces to encourage connections between women from the diverse communities of Ōtautahi.

It's been a big 6 months for Share Kai. Check out our mahi and the impact we've made Jan - June 2024.

The recent Lots InCommon event on the Ara | Te Pūkenga campus provided a sense of belonging for some and a taste sensation for others.

In July Mahia te Aroha and InCommon headed to Auckland to pitch our Share Kai programme to one of our nation’s most exciting country-wide funders – Weave (formerly the ‘Working Together More Fund’).

Did you join us in July to try some zalabiyeh (Middle Eastern/North African round donuts, pictured above), Afghan potato kuku (frittata) or sel roti (Nepali rice flour fried bread)?

We partnered with the St Albans Community Centre for a second series of Share Kai and Kōrero featuring brunch menus from our Cooks Collective.

We’ve been testing the waters with a new way of bringing people together over tasty food by hosting Friday evening events throughout February and early March at a developing community space, the Stanmore Yard and Commons at 97 Stanmore Road.
