Kia ora whanau. I joined Piki Te Ora in January 2023 and have been warmly welcomed by everyone. It is a pleasure to be involved with such dedicated and ethical staff, who care for the patients at Piki Te Ora. The culture and ethos of Piki resonates with my own values and it is great to see that our team of professionals is having a positive impact on the health of our local community.

Kia ora, Talofa Lava,
My name is Glenda and I have worked at Piki Te Ora/ Union and Community Health for the last 25 years.
I am passionate about all Whanau having access to our Medical Centre which supports their well being.
I have lived in Christchurch the majority of my life. I have two children, my daughter lives in Christchurch and works for the Ministry of Education; and my son lives abroad in Japan.
I also have three amazing grandchildren who I love spending time with.
In my spare time I love to watch movies, spend time with my Whanau, as well as potter in the garden.
I look forward to seeing you at Piki Te Ora.
Nga mihi
