What Ngāti Rānana means to you:

Ngāti Rānana is a place I find peace. I joined in 2015 after 9 years of being in the UK and as soon as I stepped into New Zealand House, I felt a place of belonging; after years of feeling lost and isolated after being away from Aotearoa for so long.

My focus for this year is to use our Social Media channels to promote our wonderful club and the mahi we do on this side of the world with the goal of showcasing how inclusive and inviting we are for those longing for a connection to Te Ao Māori.
