Please note:

As part of our Wellbeing initiative at Nuku Ora, which Green Prescription is a part of, offices are closed from Monday 22nd through to Friday 26th September 2025. This means all Nuku Ora's employees will be unavailable. The reason behind the initiative is to support employee wellbeing so that all employees will return to the office refreshed and ready to continue supporting the community.   

We are temporarily pausing new referrals during this week and will open this back up when we return to office on Monday 29th September. Thank you for your understanding and patience.
