WINGS (Women's International Newcomers Group Social) is a not-for-profit organisation located in Whangarei.


We are a friendship group that welcomes all women, locals and newcomers.


Wherever you are from, WINGS will always help you feel a bit more at home here in New Zealand. 


We do events like fun outings and coffee mornings, book club, Tai Chi, cooking, arts and craft workshops, bowling, games, or just looking for a walking buddy. 


We help women came out from their loneliness after they join us to our events. 


We have someone at the hospital to refer us if there are some newcomers arriving from overseas.

We support women to settle in Whangarei. 



What surprises people when they do start working with you?

Share a Testimonial from someone that has benefited from your service

I knew no one when I came to Whangarei and was impressed when I was kindly invited by the WINGS group to attend one of their evenings and found them most friendly and interesting people.

As I’ve had bad health and have just completed my second hip replacement I am keen now to get more involved  and meet socially for friendship and participation.



Is there a referral process or can people self-refer to your service? 

Women can just turn up to the events that WINGS organises.
