As knowledge and experience has grown, Age Concern now has the wider purpose of promoting healthy, active ageing to people of all ages. We work in cooperation with other organisations towards obtaining our vision. Age Concern recognises its responsibilities to uphold the principles of the Treaty of Waitangi and the unique partnership that exists between Mฤori and the Crown, with partnerships devel
oped with Mฤori organisations and local marae. Similarly, Age Concern works in cooperation with Pacific peoples and other ethnicities to support their needs and aspirations. Ageing is a lifelong process, starting at birth โ many of the Age Concerns have programmes that promote generational interdependence. Our Values
The work of Age Concern New Zealand is based on these values, with special reference to older people, koroua and kuia. For information and support Ph 07 347 1539
