The death of 18-year-old Jade Evans has left a huge hole in her family’s life.

UPDATE for our loyal Supporters
Thank you for your continued support, particularly over the last 2 weeks.

Because we do not receive any funding (even though we have met the criteria for the past 2 years), we have no extra money to cover sickness etc. We have had to close on 3 occasions!!!
This of course means no income earned so wages, rent and other Creditors cannot be paid.

Health NZ are unfortunately out of touch with the reality of Primary Health Care in 2026, and their latest reasons for rejection are, among others

• There are enough Practitioners, Doctor or Nurse for the number of people looking for care
• There are Medical Centres taking new people
• There has been no indication that people are unhappy with the Service provided by Primary Health Care in the Wairarapa.
Ironically no one asks me for our weekly stats.

We need you to voice your opinion on the State of Primary Health Care in the Wairarapa.
You don’t need to use identifications just describe your experience eg. had to wait 6 weeks for next appointment for an acute injury!

If you know of any Service Groups who might be able to donate during our current financial status, details are:
Manaaki Ki Wairarapa Charitable Trust
Account No. 060689 0933 408 02

A huge thank you to our regular donors who are helping keep our clinic open.
