NZ Map Auckland Waikato Wellington Wellington Canterbury Otago The NZCS is a truly nationwide organisation with branches throughout the country. Each branch coordinates a range of local events, furthers the organisation's interests in their region, provides valuable feedback through to the national organisation, and helps ensure we maintain a truly nationwide agenda.

Each branch has an active Branch Committee which coordinates local activities of the NZCS. The Committee is here to help - if you're a new member, please don't hesitate to approach any Branch Committee member at the next local event and introduce yourself.
