We support tāngata whai ora (people seeking wellness) and whānau to live the lives they want, free from alcohol, drug, or other addiction challenges.

Head over to facebook.com/OdysseyYouthNZ to check in with our youth services team or to www.facebook.com/odysseycafenewlynn to visit our social enterprise Odyssey Cafe

Since 1980, Odyssey has supported thousands of New Zealanders whose lives are affected by alcohol, drug or other addiction challenges.

e wholeheartedly believe that everyone in Aotearoa New Zealand should have the opportunity to live life to the fullest and feel hopeful about their future. We want you to have options to access the support you need in ways that work for you. We recognise that recovery is a journey and that you may need different supports at different times in your life.

* * * Wherever or whenever you may access our services – at our community hubs, staying with us, or somewhere else – you will find a supportive environment to learn new skills and work towards new life goals, alongside other people who are experiencing similar challenges.

* * * Guided and supported by trained peers and practitioners, you will have the time and space to think about what you want from life and how to get there.

* * * Here on Facebook, we'll share news about our work, as well as information and resources that support recovery and wellbeing. We look forward to connecting with you too.

* * * As in all our spaces, our conversations and work are guided by our pillars (or values) - Trust | Honesty | Responsibility | Concern | Love. We encourage everyone to consider these when sharing views here.

We're delighted to be offering a Hepatitis C service across the Te Manawa Taki region. The service begins on 1 October 2025.

The service is a partnership between Odyssey, DISC Trust, and Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora

Odyssey was chosen after a competitive procurement process. Te Whatu Ora liked Odyssey and DISC’s model, which emphasised community-led, culturally responsive care.

We will be running this alongside our Northland Hepatitis C mobile service.

Our Hep C team is working together with Te Hiku Hauora for World Hepatitis Day on July 28th. Running from 10am-2pm we will be raising awareness through education and testing. We will share information around Hepatitis C, why it's important to test and how to stop the spread.

There are goodie bags and $10 gift cards for whānau who test with us for the first time.

The event is being held in Kaitaia's Commerce Street in the town square.

Here are the before and after photos of a recent working bee at our New Windsor, Auckland site.

Odyssey’s grounds include 1.2ha of bush along a 238m stretch of Te Auaunga (Oakley Creek) – the longest waterway in Tāmaki Makaurau. Ngāti Whātua Ōrākei has aspirations to enhance the mauri of Te Auaunga. As an organisation we want to uphold our kaitiaki responsibilities through restoring the hauora of the land, to support the wellbeing of all.

The enthusiastic work of about 40 tāngata whai ora and kaimahi helped clear areas once dominated by invasive weeds and people had fun doing it! The results were a fantastic example of what can be achieved in a short time by working together.

The mahi provided an awesome chance to connect with nature and connect with others while giving back to taiao/nature.

We hope the working bee is the first in a series where tāngata whai ora and kaimahi will work together, preparing the land for native planting.

Ngā mihi nui to all those involved and everyone who supported the event.

Dave, Odyssey's Lived Experience Lead, has earned his The Speed Freaks tee-shirt.

Speed Freaks collaborate with Odyssey to help improve the health and wellbeing of tāngata whai ora and kaimahi in our services.

Participants earn their shirts through consistently showing up to running and walking groups, for persisting, and for representing Speed Freaks' kaupapa of health and wellbeing, inclusion, and paying it forward.

Well done, Dave!

Waitangi Day reminds us to reflect on Te Tiriti o Waitangi and its profound significance in our work. Odyssey has a 45-year history of providing services to people impacted by addiction and mental distress.

Earlier this year we made a submission to oppose the Treaty Principles Bill 2024. We see the Bill as undermining Te Tiriti o Waitangi and the longstanding partnership between the Crown and Māori. Odyssey remains committed to upholding Te Tiriti o Waitangi as a foundational document of Aotearoa New Zealand. It weaves itself through every strand of our work – from the daily interactions our kaimahi have with the people using our services to the way we set our vision for the future. The foremost aspect of our strategic plan says ‘Ko Te Tiriti o Waitangi tō tātau tūāpapa’ (Te Tiriti o Waitangi is our foundation). It is a foundation we will continue to build on in partnership.
