Driving whānau to success
Aukaha’s new driver licensing programme Aukaha Drive helps whānau overcome any barriers in the way of accessing driver licensing if they meet requirements. If you meet certain criteria, the Ministry of Social Development can cover the costs. We encourage you to get in touch to find out what we can do for you.

Planning for our future

A modern office, a historic location.
In 2022, Aukaha (1997) Ltd shifted from its former location in upper Stuart St to where it stands today at lower Hanover St. The move provided Aukaha’s Mana Ahurea creative design team a blank canvas to implement a mana whenua narrative in its own interior design project. Our office workspace at 266 Hanover Street, Dunedin celebrates its authentic/historic anchoring within Ōtepoti, in a modern uplifting space that meets the needs of a diverse team.
