We are proud to partner with the team at Pacific Heartbeat NZ to support the delivery of yet another amazing workshop for nutrition.

We were excited to deliver another Community Nutrition Course in partnership with Te Ora Puāwai, supporting the wellbeing of their patients. The workshop was filled with meaningful talanoa, practical nutrition tips, and strong community connections.

We’re thankful for this ongoing collaboration and excited to continue walking alongside our communities on their health journeys.

Already, over 1,800 locals in Māngere have jumped on board – and the change is real. Lives are being uplifted, goals are being smashed, and wellness is becoming our norm.

We know we’re not here to fix the whole world — but we are here to manaaki our own. And that’s more than enough to spark something powerful. 🔥
Let’s go, Southside. Let’s thrive.

Kicking off 2025 with a bang! 🎉

Our first workshop of the year was packed with fun, learning, and plenty of “aha!” moments. From understanding systolic & diastolic readings 🩺 to the role of food 🥦 and medication 💊 in managing hypertension, we covered it all!

The best part? Each participant took home their very own blood pressure monitor to keep track of their health. 💪🏽✨

Huge shoutout to Te Ora Puāwai & Ōtara Family & Christian Health Centre for an awesome start to the year!
