📢 An Important Update for Our CHB Families
As many of you may know, due to recent legislative changes affecting incorporated societies, along with the liquidation of Parents Centre Aotearoa, Central Hawke’s Bay Parents Centre is transitioning.
We want to reassure our community that for local families, it is very much business as usual.
All the services, classes, support, and events you know and love will continue under the Central Hawke’s Bay Pregnancy and Parenting – Ruahine Whakawhanau Tamariki Trust, including:
✔ Coffee Groups
✔ Antenatal Classes
✔ Lactation Support
✔ First Aid Courses
✔ Guest Speakers and Parenting Workshops
Before these changes took effect, all members were emailed and advised that their memberships would automatically transfer to the Trust unless they contacted us to opt out. If you are a current member, there is nothing you need to do.
Hannah Tully will continue in her role as Hub Coordinator, and our trustees are excited to continue growing and supporting services for local whānau.
📱 page Changes
Over the next week, we will be deleting the current Central Hawke’s Bay Pregnancy and Parenting – Ruahine Whakawhanau Tamariki Trust page and renaming this Central Hawke’s Bay Parents Centre page to become the official Central Hawke’s Bay Pregnancy and Parenting – Ruahine Whakawhanau Tamariki Trust page.
Thank you for your ongoing support. While the name may be changing, our commitment to supporting local parents, caregivers, pēpi, tamariki and whānau remains exactly the same. 💕
