Last week, nearly 200 people came through the Turner Centre to donate blood and help save lives.

A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to give, as well as the NZ Blood team and volunteers who made it all possible.

Every donation counts, and together our community made a real difference. 🩸❤️

A full house last night for Kororipo Pā: The Return of a Historic Landmark.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for this important and moving discussion with Kipa Munro and David Clendon, exploring the history of Kororipo Pā, its return to the guardianship of Ngāti Rēhia on behalf of Ngāpuhi, and the long journey behind this historic moment.
