Ko Ngati Whatua te Iwi
Ko Kaipara Te Moana
Ko Wellsford ki te Kainga
Ko Libby Clews Toku Ingoa

Originally from Alexandra, Central Otago. Have lived here in Wellsford for four years. I have run Northern Helping Hands for 8 years which has grown and changed over this time. This organic growth changed to a lot of community projects and initiatives for the Wellsford Area. Now, as a weaver for Neighbours Aotearoa and Wellsford Kainga I am so passionate and invested in helping Wellsford grow and to build on the amazing structure we already have. As part of my role I am trying to learn Te Reo which is challenging!

Kia Ora whanau, 

Ko Jaelyn Tōku ingoa,
Ko Ngāti Whātua kī Kaipara te lwi.

Born and bred here in the Kaipara, My Whanau proudly Descend from a local chief, Arama Karaka. Reggie & Ron Walker are my Grandparents whom shared close friendships and memories with many from Wellsford.

My current role as a Wellsford Community Weaver gives the opportunity to connect our community towards building one big Whānau.
