Last week, representatives from the Southern Engagement Group (SEG) got to check out how the Outpatient Building is looking ahead of its opening later this year and stood on the newly laid foundation slabs of the Inpatient Building!

It's an exciting milestone to have our stakeholders visit our sites and share in our progress - we can't wait to welcome patients to the Outpatient Building towards the end of the year

SEG brings together stakeholders from Otago and Southland local government, public health and tertiary institutions, led by independent Chair John Gallaher.

We're looking forward to sharing more updates, progress and visits with our stakeholders and community

Stay tuned for more updates!

🇫🇯 The Fiji Council of Churches expressed deep pastoral concern over the increasing reports of missing children between the ages of 13–16 in Fiji.

“As churches, we mourn with families living with fear, uncertainty, and heartbreak during these difficult moments,” reads a statement. “Our children are precious gifts from God, entrusted into our care, protection, and love.”

The churches underscored the urgent need to strengthen homes, communities, and support systems so that young people may feel safe, heard, valued, and guided.

“The Fiji Council of Churches calls upon parents, guardians, churches, schools, community leaders, and authorities to work together in protecting and nurturing our children,” reads the statement. “We encourage our communities to remain vigilant, supportive, and responsible, especially in the use of social media, ensuring that affected families and children are treated with dignity and care.”
