30 Jun Nau mai, haere mai ki a Gayel Mcdonald

Ko Taranaki te maunga
Ko Aotea te waka
Ko Ngaruahine me Te Atiawa te iwi
Ko Ngati Tū te hapū
Ko Waiokura me Potaka te marae
Ko Gayel tōku ingoa

Previously working as a Whanau Ora kaimahi in the community of West Auckland, Gayel’s passion for rangatahi health and wellbeing gave her the motivation to venture where she felt she could make the biggest impact. 

Having discovered He Pī Ka Rere aligned with her values and dedication to improving the oranga of rangatahi, she is now contracted to Toi Tangata as a facilitator for the kaupapa in the West Auckland area where she has already built relationships with the local kura. 

Gayel has her Level 4 qualification in Mental Health & Addictions, Health & Wellbeing, Promotional Health and Sports & Operations. We are looking forward to having Gayel join the Toi Tangata whānau and can’t wait to see her pūkenga in action! Nau mai, whakatau mai!
