ServicesNutrition and Physical Activity This service is designed to improve the health and well being of Whanau through healthy eating, regular physical activity and the reduction of obesity. The programme also aims to work proactively to develop and implement policies that support healthy food choices and increased physical activity. Strengthening strategic alliances and networks to promote healthy food choices and involvement in physical activity is an imperative component of this service. The coverage area for this service is Wellington, Hutt Valley, Upper Hutt, Petone and Eastbourne.  The nutrition and physical activity team comprises two full time staff working in Kura Kaupapa, community settings and marae. One on one group sessions are an important part of the service. Korikori tinana, tai chi, healthy promotion events, relay for life, touch rugby and waka ama are just some of the areas the team work in.
