Case Example
Community Conversations - Waitaki District Council
McElrea Consulting was engaged by Waitaki District Council to design and deliver a programme of community conversations.
Through workshops, interviews, and facilitated discussions, we gathered insights from residents across the district.
These findings directly informed council decision-making, ensuring community aspirations were reflected in future planning.
