Kia ora East Coast caregivers!

Please join us in wishing the very best to James Uri, our Regional Coordinator for the East Coast, as he leaves Caring Families Aotearoa.

We know that James made connections with many of you – and it’s important to us that we don’t lose those connections. We look forward to introducing you to a new Regional Coordinator soon, however in the interim, our Care Support Manager Megan Fitzgibbon will be acting in this role.

Please feel free to contact Megan on 0800 693 323 if you require support, or email eastcoast@caringfamilies.org.nz
