Opinion
Tena koutou Tauawhi men’s group and the Crawford whānau.
Congratulations Tauawhi on achieving the long-held dream of having a respite house for men. It has been a long journey and hard work for you all.
How blessed we are, as a region, to have men and women who don’t want
to judge but want to help their brothers to live without the anger which decimates whānau and community.
We also have the Crawfords with the hostel for homeless men, making sure that there is a place of warmth and comfort and hearty meals for those who find themselves without shelter.
You are all heroes and warriors in the fight against a world that seems less able to supply warmth and comfort to all in our communities.
