We’re keen to hear from people eager to get involved – either by coming to the weekend as a participant, or as a project holder.

We are keen to hear from people who are living, working, doing what they do in the Hutt to spend a weekend with us helping out existing wellbeing projects. Whether you are a stay-at-home Dad, teacher, IT professional, rugby player, nurse, graphic designer, secondary school student, cafe owner or astronaut we would like to hear from you!

 

What is a Lifehack Weekend?

Lifehack Weekends are a great opportunity to kickstart creativity and innovation in a wide section of our society, around the country. We blend an engaging, fun social experience, with a highly collaborative way of working on issues which are best addressed through a diverse bunch of people working together. So far, we’ve held weekend events in Kaitaia, Invercargill, Greymouth, Christchurch and Wellington… now it’s time for Lower Hutt.

If you are interested in attending as a participant please complete this form and if you have a project you would like to put forward for the weekend please complete this form. At Lifehack weekends you’ll definitely make new connections, meet like minds and use skills you never knew you had on awesome projects which improve the lives of young Kiwis. You can see the video about past events here, and here is one from our Christchurch event last year.
