Want to make a difference in your community? The opportunity is open for people in Malvern to make a difference by joining the Malvern Community Board.

Nominations are open until 12 noon on Thursday 19 October, for anyone wanting to stand for election for either the Hawkins or Tawera Subdivisions.

Former Board chair John Morten says being on the community board is a chance to make a difference for your area.
“The Community Board is a place where you can speak up for your townships, to raise their issues and to bring positive changes, from grants and funding, helping young talent or community groups to thrive, to hearing and helping to sort the
real day to day issues in our communities in Malvern.”

Anyone aged 18 or older can stand for election if they are a New Zealand citizen and on the electoral roll. Nomination forms must be signed by two people who are enrolled as electors in the ward or subdivision that the person is nominated for.

Nomination forms, and a downloadable copy of the candidate handbook, are available on our elections page , or from Council offices and service centres.
