Teresea Olsen Wellingtonian of the Year
Teresea Olsen, general manager of health and social services at Kōkiri Marae in Seaview, took out the supreme award on Thursday night to loud applause and cheers.
On receiving the supreme award, Olsen said: “For the past 40 plus years I have been helping those less fortunate in my community. If there was one wish I could have, it would be that I could have another 40 years to serve my community. It has been a pleasure. I thank you for this honour.”

Te Omanga Hospice’s Annual Street Appeal
Te Omanga Hospice’s Annual Street Appeal is taking place during Hospice Awareness Week on Friday 17, Saturday 18 and Sunday 19 May (Upper Hutt Brewtown Market only on Sunday).
You will see our official volunteer collectors out on the street (come rain or shine) across the Hutt Valley, wearing pink aprons and holding white donation buckets.
Please give generously when you see an official collector.
We need your support to keep our services free for all those who need us. Together we can make a difference to the over 600 patients and their families we care for each year.
If you can’t donate at one of our collection sites during the appeal, you can also donate through our Givealittle page givealittle.co.nz... or online at www.teomanga.org.nz...
Thank you for your support!
