What is K Road Chronicles?
The award-winning web series K' Road Chronicles returns for a third season.
No two stories about homelessness and poverty are the same, and both are problems that are not going to go away.
This groundbreaking series gives an ongoing voice to the homeless and impoverished of Aotearoa New Zealand. K' Road Chronicles has become a highly regarded project, shedding light on the lives of the marginalised and providing a platform for their stories with journalist and host Six, having made a significant impact over two seasons.
K’ Road Chronicles delves into the gritty reality of those living within the margins of society, shining a critical eye on overlooked issues and sharing deeply personal stories of hope and inspiration from our street communities. Six's unique perspective stems from her own lived experience of homelessness on Auckland's iconic Karangahape Road, as well as her daily interactions with the vibrant characters, homeless individuals, social workers, and others within this community through her street publication, the K’ Road Chronicle.
With the trust of those she encounters, Six has become a well-known figure in the community, allowing people to share their deeply personal stories.
The series has gained recognition and support from organisations such as Auckland City Mission, Lifewise, Housing First, Rainbow Youth, The K’ Road Business Association, and 155 Community House Whangārei.
In this third season, K’ Road Chronicles goes even deeper, bringing forth informative, surprising, touching, and captivating stories.
With a commitment to powerful storytelling, the series aims to create greater understanding, empathy, and positive change for these vulnerable communities.
K' Road Chronicles is made with the support of NZ On Air

Neoliberal reforms since the mid 80s and excessive immigration are key to understanding present-day homelessness. Here in Europe and in New Zealand as well. It's likewise everywhere in the "developed world".
