Shared Vision
Shared Vision in Action
Our second Shared Vision North Harbour Connection Café brought together community members and local organisations for a morning of conversation, connection and shared experiences over Mental Health Awareness Week. With over 100 people registered, the Belonging Café explored what it means to feel included, why belonging matters to our wellbeing, and the small things we can all do to help others feel welcome.
A big thank you to our panellists, James Skilton from Hearts & Minds, Nibras Altayyar from Kaipātiki Community Facilities Trust, and Sateki Raass from Pasifika Consulting, for sharing their knowledge, experiences and different perspectives. The conversations continued over lunch, with attendees connecting with one another and learning more about the local services and organisations supporting our community.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the morning such a wonderful example of Shared Vision in action.

Our first Shared Vision North Harbour Connection Café brought together community members, organisations, and local leaders for a morning of connection, learning, and conversation. Hosted by Hearts & Minds, the event explored the Māori value of manaakitanga - the action of uplifting and enhancing the mana of others. We were privileged to hear from Clayton Rangitutia, who shared his insights into the importance of connection and how manaakitanga can strengthen both individual and community wellbeing. Thank you to everyone who attended and helped make our first Connection Café such a welcoming and meaningful event. We look forward to continuing the conversation at future Connection Cafés.
