Thank those who attended the Hui ā-Tau for Te Kāhui Hauora o Te Tauihu IMPB at Ūkaipō in Wairau on Saturday.
We had a strong turnout, and we acknowledge in particular the support of so many of our hauora partners across Te Tauihu.
We extend a mihi to whānau, our iwi partners, our hauora partners, and those within the health system who continue to work with us in good faith and who understand the importance of authentic relationships.
The inequities experienced by our people are not of our making. Addressing these requires system change, and meaningful change requires the collective effort of whānau, hapū, iwi, providers, clinicians, health leaders, and policymakers all working together.
Saturday showed us that this is possible.
E mihi ana ki ērā i angitu ai tēnei rā. We mihi also to all of you who helped make this day a success.
