Nau mai, haere mai!

He Waka Tapu is a kaupapa Māori organisation located in Ōtautahi (Christchurch). Whānau wellbeing is important to us and we work with both the individual and whānau.

There is a referral process that must be completed before accessing any services.

For further information phone 0800 HE WAKA (43 9252) or email reception@hewakatapu.org.nz

He Waka Tapu will continue to follow government direction and operate at Level 2 as an essential service. That means our doors are now open! Referrals can still be processed by filling out our online form.

Numbers onsite will be managed to uphold safe distancing requirements and large events will be postponed. Group times may be subject to change to allow for larger spaces to be used, any changes will be communicated directly to whaiora. Tinana Free community gym is open however numbers are limited to around 10-15 onsite at one time - so please note that will impacts some group classes. Our residential service, Mauri Ora continues as usual and is open and receiving referrals.

For any questions or queries regarding our operations please contact tanith@hewakatapu.org.nz

Stay safe and well.
