What We Do 
Ā Mātou Mahi

Respectful Ageing

Our five-year strategy, ‘Respectful Ageing’, has been developed from detailed research and analysis which highlighted that need is great and growing, and that there is limited investment into enabling systemic change. In the 1950s, our forebears were bold and innovative – making a documentary called ‘Indictment !’ and using this as a call to action for funding to build affordable accommodation for older people in Auckland, at what later became Selwyn Village.

The issues facing older people today are the same as they were in the 1950s, therefore our call to action hasn’t changed – this time, however, we’re using our pūtea (our managed investment fund) to leverage our response to these challenging circumstances, working with others to drive change and have the greatest impact for those vulnerable seniors in our communities.

Our strategic direction is anchored in our Vision and Purpose | Moemoeā

Our Vision | Moemoeā is:

Respectful Ageing for all, within Thriving Communities | Oranga Mātua, Oranga Tangata 

Our Purpose | Tō mātou kaupapa is:

To enable older people with great need to age respectfully.
