Nau mai, tahuti mai e te marea



On Friday 17 April, Hora Te Pai, in partnership with Tuihana Ohia and Mokopuna Solutions, are hosting a Sustainable Styling Workshop in Paraparaumu.



Facilitated by Tuihana Ohia, the space invites us to explore fashion as a vehicle for wellbeing—using kākahu (clothing) as a form of rongoā, and weaving together the four pillars of Te Whare Tapa Whā.



It’s an opportunity to reflect on how kākaku (clothing) gives expression to our whakapapa and uplift mauri, wellbeing, while engaging with the stories they carry in a space of connection.



Come along for an evening of:

✨ Styling
✨ Storytelling
✨ Food and drink



📍 Kapiti Impact Hub, Grace Hall

6 Tongariro Street, Paraparaumu
⏰ 6.30–8.30pm



Free event (limited spaces)
👉 Book your seat: www.tuihana.com/general-5



Nau mai te katoa — we’d love to see you there 💛

AGM and ANNUAL REPORT 2025

Ko ngā kura wiwini o te pō ki a koutou,
Ko ngā kura wawana o te ao marama ki a tātou,
Tihei mauri ora!

E ngā tini āhuatanga o te wā, tēnā koutou, mauri ora ki a tātou katoa,

We are delighted to share the highlights from the Hora Te Pai Health Services Charitable Trust Annual General Meeting, held at Whakarongotai Marae on Sunday, 9 November 2025.

We were extremely humbled by the presence of our marae trustees, kuia, kaumātua, iwi, whānau and patients who attended. Ātiawa nō runga i te rangi – kei te mihi. The hui was followed by a beautiful hākari, lovingly prepared by our ahi kaa, Te Whānau Kearney. Kua p**a ā pito. Huri ake ngā mihi ki ngā ringa rōreka o Te Aorewa.

It is our absolute privilege to present this year’s Annual report on behalf of Hora Te Pai Charitable Trust, for the year ending 30 June 2025. This year has been one of growth, innovation and renewal — a time where our kaupapa tuku iho (our inherited values) have guided us through both challenges and opportunities. As you read this year’s Te Pūrongo a Tau 2025, we invite you to do so with curiosity and openness.

The key highlights in this report speak to the dedication of our kaimahi, whose love for people, sense of service and integrity sit at the heart of all our achievements. This spirit is continually strengthened by the unwavering support of our Mana Whakahaere, the Board of Trustees; Daphne Luke (Chair), Kiri Parata (Deputy Chair), Cassidy Pidduck, Dr Chris Fawcett, Vanessa Eldridge.

To our whānau, iwi, partners and funders; e rere ana ngā mihi ki a koutou katoa.

Please find the full Annual Report available through the link below. It is also available through our Hora Te Pai website.

Ko tō Raukura, ko tōku raukura,
Ko te whare oranga o Hora Te Pai,
E tū nei.
