Join us in our final reimagining session for 2024, as we look to reimagine cardiovascular health services in Porirua to become more suitable for our communities!

We are looking for up to 12 passionate Porirua community members who have lived with cardiovascular related concerns or know someone who has, to be part of a focus group.

The goal of this workshop is to facilitate community-driven change and have input into re-designing the delivery of cardiovascular health services through their own personal experiences.
