Community Reach
A clinic at the heart of the community with the community at its heart.
The Centre for Health exists within an ecosystem that is our community. Everything we do is shaped by the connections we have. Total health and wellbeing solutions must be developed in partnership with the people they are designed to serve.
Community Reach is where our mission and values become action:
In the programmes we co-design with whānau, in the research we lead to answer the questions our communities are asking, and in the way we show up with respect, partnership, and purpose.
Community
We offer flexible delivery to suit your people, priorities, and schedule.

Programmes that reflect real lives
From marae-based heart health checks to lifestyle interventions delivered in workplaces, schools, or gyms, our services are flexible and responsive to community needs. Whether we’re running kaupapa Māori health programmes, walking alongside whānau managing long term conditions, or building confidence post heart event. Our approach is relational, culturally safe, and grounded in lived realities.
Research that serves
Through our research arm Manawaora, we lead and collaborate on projects that matter. Projects that elevate the voices, values, and solutions of our communities. Research isn’t just something we do. It directly informs the services we offer, the programmes we design, and the impact we aim to create.

Equity in action
We believe everyone deserves the opportunity to live well. That’s why we actively seek ways to break down barriers to access. Through funded pathways, local partnerships, and targeted initiatives focused on health equity. We are constantly learning, listening, and evolving.
