The Junction
WISE is proud to operate The Junction Reuse Shop – a community facility taking charge of Taranaki’s Zero Waste future. Through a range of initiatives we strive to change attitudes around waste minimisation and reuse by:
- Encouraging reduction of waste through reuse and recycling.
- Encouraging the donation of preloved goods for resale at The Junction.
- Providing fun, hands-on education.
- Recycling options for household recycling, e-waste and alternative recycling.
WISE Charitable Trust proudly wins the Leadership in Climate Action Award for The Junction Zero Waste Hub at the 2025 Taranaki Regional Council Environmental Awards. This recognition feels special because it reflects the hard mahi of our staff, our volunteers, our partners and our wider community who stand with us through every challenge and every rainy day at The Junction.
The awards night at Stadium Taranaki felt full of energy and strong community spirit. We felt grateful to stand alongside so many passionate groups, educators, individuals and charities who dedicate their time to creating a healthier, more sustainable future for Taranaki.
A huge mihi to the Taranaki Regional Council for shining a light on the climate mahi happening across the region. Their support helps strengthen the resilience of our rohe and encourages all of us to keep pushing for positive change.
