Tēnā koutou

Mai i te whakatūtanga o tēnei rōpū tiaki pūtea o Atihau Whanganui, o AWHI, kua noho nei a au ki te nohoanga o te Tiamana. Heoi, kei te tupu tonu ngā tūāhuatanga o te rōpū, nei a au e mahi ana ki ngā kaitiaki katoa, e kawe ana i te mahi e tū ora ai.

E ngā uri o te morehu whenua, kia kaha te tono pūtea hei tautoko i te mōrehu tāngata, nā ō tātau tūpuna i waiho mai.

As the inaugral Chair of the Trust I wish to acknowledge the Trustees for the passion they have shown in the first year of the Trust's work. I encourage our people to apply to the trust.
