Kia ora neighbours, an iwi who have been without a marae for decades are a step closer to rebuilding on ancestral land.

Te Kawerau ā Maki have been without a formal marae and papakāinga since the mid-twentieth century when their remaining land was sold.

Edward Ashby, Te Kawerau ā Maki trustee said a marae based at Te Henga/Bethells Beach, where the iwi hold mana whenua status, was washed away by floodwater in the 1920s and remaining land was sold in the 1950s.

At the start of August, Auckland Council granted $142,500 worth of funding for the project which Ashby said would help take things forward to the final design.

Everyone deserves a warm, dry, healthy home – see if you’re eligible for financial support to insulate and heat yours.

Warmer Kiwi Homes is a government grant that offers 80% - 90% of the cost of ceiling and underfloor insulation, and up to 80% off an energy-efficient heater, like a heat pump. In August, the eligibility criteria were extended so over 50,000 more households are eligible for insulation grants.

And you may get it even cheaper than that - lots of community organisations offer extra funding to reduce the cost further.

Check your eligibility, or check for your whānau.
