Our Story
Raukura Hauora o Tainui pursues the dream of Princess Te Puea Herangi and helps the people of Tainui reclaim their health and wellness needs.
The Tainui community health development commenced from 1983. In 1991 Raukura Hauora O Tainui became a legal entity and began delivering community health promotion programmes. Those progressed into primary health care, with the first GP clinic located at Waahi Marae.
In 1995 Raukura Hauora O Tainui ki Tamaki was established.
The ethos of the organisation’s aspirations is the acceptance and appreciation of Maori culture, social structures and rituals of encounter. These continue to be the basis of planning, development and implementation of all health care programmes offered by the organisation.
