"Te Hapori Ora | The Village of Well-being has been a connecting factor for me,

A beautiful team of Tane and Wahine coming together to be the village of well-being to many, being in Wellington, sometimes I feel so disconnected from my Maori culture, my roots that keep me centred and grounded, but knowing that Te Hapori Ora is always a message away or a zoom call away has been a massive help to my healing journey.
Whanau from many walks of life and with different perspectives on things helps everyone not only in the village but nationally and internationally stay connected and my latest motto is A Whanau that grow together Stay together, and that’s what I can say is the base for Te Hapori Ora.”
