Initially with zero-budget, this community-led movement has grown exponentially to empower whānau to ‘move more’, eat and grow healthier kai (food). In 2017 the community took full ownership, forming the Huringa Pai Charitable Trust. With funding support from the JR McKenzie Trust and Hawkes Bay Medical Research Foundation, an evaluative case study has now been completed to share the journey, learnings and success of this initiative and to inform further developments.
