❈ Services ❈

Although Waipu Hauora was established to service our 3 marae and Community of Matapihi, we are also inclusive of our wider whanau and communities. Our Clientele is predominantly Maori, not exclusive to any race and we welcome those of all ages from Kaumatua to Pepi. A lot of our people participate in some of our programmes and they come from outside of Matapihi.
