On Saturday 22nd June, our ENUA OLA programme put on a beautiful evening to celebrate the journey, achievements and events of the Enua Ola collective for the year 1 July 2023 - 30 June 2024. This included the Pasifika Outrigger Health Challenge. Over 370 people attended the event held at Church Unlimited in Glendene, West Auckland.

We would like to particularly acknowledge our special guests from Health New Zealand - Te Whatu Ora - National Director Pacific Health, Makerita Poutasi and Pacific Health Northern Regional Director, Harriet Pauga. It was an honor to have you both with us to join in the celebrations.

The evening was a wholesome one, and an ultimate reflection of the community relationships and trust that have been built through the Enua Ola programme. It was a true Pasifika celebration with lots of dance, laughter and delicious food!
