Addictions & Gambling Harm
We support individuals and whānau affected by alcohol and other drugs, gambling harm and related challenges.
Whānau & Community
We deliver kaupapa Māori programmes, wānanga and community initiatives that strengthen whānau and promote wellbeing.
Ngā Manga Pūriri is a Kaupapa Māori health and wellbeing provider supporting whānau throughout Te Tai Tokerau.
For more than 30 years, we have walked alongside whānau and communities, providing free, confidential and culturally responsive support.
Our experienced kaimahi bring together clinical practice, lived experience and mātauranga Māori to support people experiencing challenges relating to mental health and wellbeing, alcohol and other drugs, gambling harm, whānau resilience and wider wellbeing.
We believe support should strengthen te tapu o te tangata, uphold mana and enable whānau to determine their own pathway toward wellbeing and mana motuhake.

Safer
environments
We work alongside communities, venues and services to create safer environments, strengthen harm prevention and ensure people know where and how to access support.
Policy & Advocacy
We contribute to policy development and advocate for approaches that reduce gambling and other addiction-related harm and improve the wellbeing of whānau and communities.
Wānanga & Community Wellbeing
We facilitate wānanga, groups and community initiatives that build knowledge, connection and resilience and strengthen protective factors for whānau.
Informed & Empowered Communities
We raise awareness of gambling and addiction-related harm through community engagement, education, events and accessible resources, supporting whānau to recognise harm early and seek support.
