CHRONICLE & LOC A L R AG MOVE OFFICE TO IHUB BY EDITH SY MES the museum building, where it now shares foyer space with Raglan iHub. Jacqui Kay, the owner of Raglan Ink which publishes the Chronicle and the Local Rag, made the decision to move and downsize the office. “The opportunity came up to be incorporated into iHub,” she explains. “It made sense to become part of a community hub and pursue a mutually beneficial relationship where we could combine and help each other out. “With both of us having an interest in tourism and promotion of Raglan, it works well to pool our resources.” Jacqui’s noticed fewer visitors to the office over the years because of advances in technology. “Most people now communicate via email and additionally we ceased to operate our commercial printing service,” she says. “Even before Covid lockdowns, like many businesses we were changing the way we operated and have been working from home more regularly.

“And although we have appreciated our midtown space we can no longer justify retaining a large office beyond our needs,” she adds. The iHub will act as a depot for both publications as well as being a space from which the Chronicle team will be available for appointments and interviews. And there is a drop-off service for those with news items to contribute.

Governed by the Whaingaroa Raglan Destination Management Organisation (WRDMO), the iHub has a team of volunteers whose focus is to help re-ignite sustainable tourism management and business. WRDMO chair Charlie Young points out the iHub and the Chronicle are both aligned in that they share information and knowledge for locals and visitors alike. It is a particularly good fit given the organisation’s objective for 2023 is on “seeking out new initiatives we can collaborate with to support greater resilience within our community,” he says. “Open communication is vital for communities to stay vibrant and connected,” Charlie adds. “Channelling our efforts will result in better informed outcomes for our town.” Don’t forget if you are a tourism business operator or in the hospitality industry, get connected with the iHub via our new dedicated web page to further enhance your online advertising network, while also benefitting from the iHub team's support and promotional activities.
