Community engagement
The annual 'Cops with Cakes' event in Whakatū is a whānau favourite, with interactive displays from the region's key community organisations.
Te Piki Oranga hosted an information stall at the 25 February event this year. We had great company, with stalls and activities also from Nelson Coastguard, Te Korowai Trust, Big Brothers Big Sisters, St John Ambulance, Fire and Emergency New Zealand and Nelson Tasman Police (who put the 'cops' into 'Cops with Cake'!) among others.
The event was an invaluable opportunity for Te Piki Oranga to connect with our hapori whānui (community). And thanks to donations of Lego as prizes from Sam Currie from the Top of the South Brick Show, our stall was very appealing to whānau, as can be seen in these photos. Tau kē Sam!
