Our community youth service, Whetū Marewa, is provided across the Rotorua district. We focus on improving the mental wellbeing of young people by working with taiohi and their whānau to build confidence, resilience and wellbeing.
I enjoyed meeting the friendly and welcoming staff of the residence. There was an ambience of warmth and an atmosphere of acceptance. The meals were delicious and fresh. They were tasty and never disappointed. Conversations with the staff were easy and forthcoming with no judgement.

The personal touch, the friendship within a professional relationship. Getting to know each other means she knows me. She can't solve the problems of the world, however she does offer me moral support and this means a lot. We are from different backgrounds and different places. We share empathy.
