Flexi Respite for Kaumātua

Respite Flexi Care & Pirirākau Kaumātua Programme

Respite Flexi Care supports whānau by providing one-on-one support, social connection and community-based activities that help kaumātua to remain living in their own homes for longer.

The service promotes hauora and wellbeing through practical assistance, meaningful activities, social interaction and opportunities to connect with others in a supportive group environment.

To be eligible, whaiora must be 65 years or older, or aged 50–64 with age-related needs, or require long-term support due to chronic health conditions.

Our Pirirākau Kaumātua Programme runs weekly and provides opportunities for whānau who affiliate to the hapū to come together through activities, connection and whanaungatanga.
