Settling in

After the first exciting and bewildering weeks you’ll start to settle into New Zealand life. It can be lonely in a new country at first - so we’ve put together some useful advice on key topics and details of organisations that can help you.

  • Citizens Advice Bureau

  • National associations

  • Facilities for disabled people

  • Guidelines for the outdoors

  • Keeping safe outdoors

  • Natural hazards

  • Safety and security

  • Discrimination

  • Religion

  • Community directories


Settling in to a new country is not always easy.  The biggest challenge can be knowing where to find all the information that you automatically knew in your own country.  That's where Settlement Support New Zealand can help.  It provides easy access to information that you may need about the services that are available in your local area to support your settlement.
