Nominations are now open for the 2026 Ryman Healthcare Senior New Zealander of the Year Award – Te Mātāpuputu o te Tau!
This is a great way to celebrate our seniors who are leaving an amazing legacy for future generations. Let’s give a shoutout to those who have made a positive contribution to Aotearoa later in life, and who are still actively making the world around them a better place, following their careers in any service, sector or field.
Take a moment to nominate the deserving individuals in your life who are making a difference every day, either in our villages or in the wider community.
Follow the link below, and let’s make their stories known!
