Work Ready Kāpiti Wins at the 2025 Electra Business & Innovation Awards
We’re proud to share that Work Ready Kāpiti has been recognised at the 2025 Electra Business & Innovation Awards - an honour that celebrates our commitment to empowering rangatahi across the Kāpiti Coast.
To be acknowledged among some of the region’s most impactful and innovative organisations is a testament to the strength of our kaupapa, the dedication of our team, and the support of our community.
This recognition highlights the heart of our mahi: creating meaningful, real-world opportunities for young people to build confidence, capability, and connection. From work experience placements to #EmployerMeets, we’re focused on preparing rangatahi for working life - with tools, networks, and encouragement that last.
It also reflects the behind-the-scenes work that makes it all possible: thoughtful programme design, strong employer relationships, and a commitment to continuous improvement.
