Kia ora and welcome to the Fiordland Families Network,
We are a newly formed group of parents and professionals passionate about supporting families in Fiordland. We live in a beautiful corner of New Zealand but our relative isolation to services can be challenging at times, especially when you have a young family. It is our mission to help families connect with each other, find out about the support and services we do have in our region and advocate for getting further services to fill some obvious gaps.
We are hoping to produce a regular newsletter, an A-Z Guide of Family Services and have many other ideas we would love to get off the ground if we can get enough support from our community. However, we can’t do this on our own.
If you are an individual, business, service group or other organisation and think you may be able to support the Fiordland Families Network we would love to hear from you. In particular, we are looking for regular contributors to our newsletter, information for our A-Z guide, assistance with funding applications and setting up of a trust (if we go along that route?) or any other assistance you think you might be able to offer, including financial support to make sure that our venture is sustainable in the long-term.
Please contact us by email on fiordlandfamilies@gmail.com if you have any content for future newsletters, comments, suggestions, questions, would like to join our small team or make a donation. Happy reading and we look forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards, the Fiordland Families Network team
