Unveiling our new name

After 40 years as Napier Family Centre, we recognised that our name no longer fully represents the breadth of services we offer or the wider community we now support. That’s why we are proud to reveal our new name: Weave Hawke’s Bay. This name better reflects our mahi from Wairoa to Waipukurau while staying true to our kaupapa. It symbolises the way we collaborate, value relationships, and weave together many threads to strengthen our communities.

Although Weave’s official launch will not take place until early 2025, the energy and excitement from our close whānau, who got the first glimpse at the AGM, is already building. Over the coming months, we’ll be working through the details of this transition and sharing more about the ‘why’ and what this change means for us all.
