Tēnā tātou, just sharing a pānui below to inform our community that a new service has been launched today at Tū Tonu for wāhine Māori and Pasifika affected by birthing injury. This service is free for wahine with an ACC claim (we can assist in lodging a claim if needed), nā reira, if you know of any hapū māmā or wāhine who have recently given birth and may be needing some support with a perineal tear, prolapse or any other form of pelvic floor injury, please forward this information to them or direct them to raranga@tutonu.com.
