Share a Testimonial from someone that has benefited from your service
I knew no one when I came to Whangarei and was impressed when I was kindly invited by the WINGS group to attend one of their evenings and found them most friendly and interesting people.
As I’ve had bad health and have just completed my second hip replacement I am keen now to get more involved and meet socially for friendship and participation.
Is there a referral process or can people self-refer to your service?
Women can just turn up to the events that WINGS organises.
