We are a collective of Whānau Ora providers in the Te Arawa area. Our collective members are:


Oranga is your birthright.
Te Arawa Whānau Ora Charitable Trust is a collective of whānau ora providers in the Te Arawa area.
Our vision is to 
work collectively for whānau ora outcomes. We intend to create transformative environments that influence the way we support whānau to achieve mana motuhake. We aim to strengthen whānau, cultivate energies of excellence and be guided by our tupuna aspirations as kaitiaki o te taiao. Kia mau ki te aka tāepa, kia mau ki te aka matua.

Oro Tamariki is a service that aims to empower tamariki and their whānau in achieving their goals and aspirations.

Oro Tamariki is Tūpuna led, mokopuna inspired, and whakapapa focused. Kaimahi engages with tamariki and their whānau to understand their core beliefs and values, design a purpose focused vision, setting goals and re-identifying with self.

This service is available to all tamariki of all ages and their whānau. If whānau are feeling overwhelmed by the involvement of multiple services, unsure who to go to for the right support, have lost direction, or are excited about their next stage in life but unsure how to map out their goals and aspirations, Oro Tamariki is the right service for them.

Manu Tāpiki is a diverse team of Māori practitioners and clinicians who lead with ngākau Māori to form meaningful relationships with whānau to nurture the potential within and develop a whānau led plan to achieve well-being.

Health Coaching is delivered by the Manu Tāpiki team and is a service that supports whānau with their health and well-being goals, encourages, and motivates whānau to self-manage their health needs, and navigates whānau towards better health outcomes by coordinating the right supports to work as one team.

Health Coaching is accessible to all whānau as a self-referral or through their doctor or health improvement practitioner. The Health Coach will work with the whānau at home or in the community to identify their goals and deliver practical activities to improve their physical, mental, spiritual, and whānau well-being.


Kaupapa Māori Access and Choice is a service delivered by the Manu Tāpiki team. If whānau are experiencing distress, facing mental health or addiction challenges, or would like to add tools and knowledge to their kete to maintain well-being, this service is available to all whānau and includes,

Ngā Kaihautu a ten-week Tāne programme that reaches positive Hauora outcomes for tāne through connection to Te Reo Māori.

By the end of Ngā Kaihautu, our tāne have a deeper understanding of who they are, where they come from, and have all the tools to create prosperous futures for themselves and their whānau.

Te Iho Tapairu a ten-week Wahine programme that encourages wāhine to heal, learn, aspire, and thrive alongside one another. We create a safe space for wāhine from all walks of life. The programme is an opportunity for wāhine to strive to become the best versions of themselves.

One to one support is for all whānau who want to improve their wellbeing with a holistic approach.

He Kahu Whai Oranga delivers a range of workshops and wānanga focusing on hauora, learning, and connection. This approach offers whānau the freedom to select their packages of care that align with their interests and aspirations. All workshops and wānanga are maramataka centric, to enhance the experience and self-care journey.

Ka tū tahi tātou ki te kohikohi i te mātauranga hei oranga tinana, hei oranga wairua, kia tū tangata ai tātou. We gather to learn, to nourish, to flourish, here we stand together.

The service is available to all whānau. The workshops and wānanga can be viewed and booked through the TĀPIKIORA app.

Oro Tuawhenua provides support to all whānau impacted by cancer, in ways that are mana enhancing and encourage mauri ora.

Our team understands this journey looks different for everyone, and therefore prioritise getting to know you, your whānau, and what’s important to you. Our service is tailored to your whānau and we are committed to ensuring you have access to the right information, resources, and support.

Tupu Matomato is a service that wraps around hapū māmā and their whānau for up to three years, nurturing them to flourish and grow. The programme was born out of a desire to revitalise traditional birthing practices and explore the stages of labour from a Māori lens.
