Why do we need to Slip, Slop, Slap in the Sun? ☀️
Protecting our skin from harmful UV rays helps prevent sunburn, long-term skin damage, and reduces the risk of skin cancer. This is especially important for our small pepe, children, and aiga during the hot summer months.
👉🏼Use age appropriate sunscreen and always check the label. For babies, focus on sun protection through full coverage with breathable fabrics such as cotton or merino, a wide-brim sunhat, and keeping them in the shade as much as possible.
⛅️Remember, the New Zealand sun is strong all year round, even on cloudy or overcast days. For health advice over the holidays, you can contact Healthline on 0800 611 116 - available 24/7, including public holidays, for free and confidential advice from registered health professionals.

Leading the development and maintenance of a healthy Pacific Community in the Hutt Valley
Pacific Health Services Hutt Valley is an independent health service working closely with our Pasefika community of 12,000 people in the Hutt Valley north of Wellington. We provide community engagement, development, support, health services and social services. Our focus is A Vibrant Healthy Pasefika community in the Hutt Valley. We have delivered value to Pasefika people since 1999.
Our Pasefika family-centred approach reinforces family strengths, provides appropriate support and empowers families to live well with greater control over their lives. We are very well connected as a core part of our community and our approach is based on socio-cultural evidence about what works. This includes working through established community networks and a focus on faith-led approaches to service delivery. The nine explicit premises from the Family Centre Report offer a good description of our Pasefika family-centred approach.
Our services are very well regarded and we achieve highly on client satisfaction and quality measures. We have built up a range of health and social services in response to community need. We work with Hutt Valley DHB, Te Awakairangi PHO and other providers.
Our services and projects include:
Family Well-being and Social Service
Community Engagement & Development Project
Healthy Lifestyles Pasefika Programme
Family Against Obesity / Pasefika Choice Project
Mobile Nursing Service
Well-child Service
Breast & Cervical Screening
Rheumatic Fever Campaign
Membership of the Central Pacific Collective
Capacity and Capability Development
We are particularly proud of the following achievements in the last three years:
Pacific Touch tournament to bring people together around the healthy lifestyles messages
Mobile Nurse-led clinics as a better and more accessible way to provide services
Family Against Obesity / Pasefika choice has increased awareness and encouraged our people to take action
Hutt Valley DHB Community Services Award
First to be audited for Quality jointly by our funders
Preferred provider status with the Ministry of Social Development
Positive service evaluation and extension of funder contracts
Our innovative Faith-led Project has shown its value and has resulted in the Ministry of Health changing its funding parameters
Development of Governance through Board professional development with the Institute of Directors (funded by the Ministry of Social Development).
Our funding partners include: Hutt Valley DHB; Ministry of Health; Ministry of Social Development; and the new Ministry for Vulnerable Children. Over the next three years, we will deepen these partnerships and add new partnerships. We will develop our community relationships to attract greater levels of charitable donation and support. Consolidating our service offering will also allow us to develop partnerships with philanthropic organisations with an interest in progressing our vision for our Pasefika community in the Hutt Valley.
Our Board is made up of representatives from the main Pasefika groups in the Hutt Valley, co-opted representatives (e.g. representing Youth) plus independent directors as required to provide the skills and experience the Board requires. We will continue to develop our governance capability to take us forward and deliver on our purpose.
Our staff are passionate about our community and bring the skills and experience needed to deliver quality service. Over the next three years, we will continue to develop our service and leadership skills and invest in technology to assist staff in their work. Our current staffing is 11 (9FTE).
Over the next three years, we will consolidate the range of services we provide for our people. This is about filling current gaps in the services we offer and deepening our quality and evaluation processes. We will work with our partners to maximise the benefit to our people from available funding and ensure that the services we provide also meet this test.
Staff, Board and Funders work together to achieve the value for our community
