One Year In

Almost a year ago, Manawatū District Council's Elected Members took their seats around the Council table. But what have they learned since?

To mark the milestone, we've created One Year In, a five-part video series offering a different perspective on the people representing our district.

Rather than focusing on why they stood for Council, we asked what has surprised them, what they've learned and what they wish they'd known before taking their seats.

From the unexpected realities of the role to the things they never imagined having a strong opinion about, the series offers a glimpse into the people behind the decisions and what it means to represent our communities.

Watch the full series below and get to know our Elected Members, one question at a time.
