Jay Rerekura

I�m proud to call Whanganui home. Over the years I�ve dedicated myself to serving our people � from youth work with Te Ora Hou, to championing campaigns like White Ribbon, to governance roles on the P?kaitore Historic Reserve Board and the Community Taskforce on Youth Wellbeing. I bring both community and business experience as a director and consultant, and I�ve always believed in turning up, listening, and getting the job done. I�m running for Council because I believe in Whanganui�s potential. Our strength lies in connection and collaboration, and I want to ensure decisions made at the council table reflect our shared values and deliver for future generations. Guided by fairness, kindness, and responsibility, I�m committed to building a Whanganui where people feel heard, supported, and confident about the future. Source: Jay Rerekura for Council M?uri ora.
