We work with whānau to understand mate wareware and provide guidance to navigate the journey with confidence and care.
Let’s start the conversation, let’s start the understanding.
Mate wareware shouldn’t be hidden or a burden. It is a journey to be shared with aroha, manaaki and strength of whānau.
MATE WAREWARE
We would like to acknowledge and thank the three whānau who feature in this video for allowing us to capture significant moments of their personal journey alongside a whānau member who has mate wareware.
If you would like to know more about mate wareware or need tautoko while going through a similar journey with your loved one, please reach out to us.
To connect with Mate Wareware navigators for support, please get in touch with Te Taihāhā at Te Oranganui.
