About Us

Presbyterian Support Northern is one of Aotearoa New Zealand’s leading providers of social and health and disability services

About Us 1

We have a long history supporting some of New Zealand’s most vulnerable people – a legacy that dates back to 1884.

Today, our social services are made up of Lifeline, Family Works and Shine, while our health and disability services are grouped under Enliven.

We also have a strong focus on business and community development through our Communities Feeding Communities initiative in Auckland, as well as fee-for-service training for businesses and community groups (DVFREE, Shine RESPOND and Lifeline Connect).

With around 900 staff, we deliver valued services from regional sites throughout the upper North Island from Taupō to Whangārei.
