Logo for Presbyterian Support Northern Presbyterian Support Northern

Presbyterian Support Northern is a charitable organisation with more than 140 years’ service to communities throughout the upper North Island. Our social services include Family Works, Lifeline and Shine; while our support for those who are ageing or have a health and disability issue is grouped under our Enliven services.

Around 840 staff and volunteers deliver our much-valued services from around 24 sites from Taupō in the south to Whangārei in the north.

As a large charitable service provider and faith-based organisation, we have a strong sense of social mission, and facilitate innovative, community-level initiatives at the grassroots.

We also provide fee-for-service programmes through Shine Education & Training (Shine RESPOND and DVFREE), that provide external training and consultancy to corporate and community organisations.

Alongside these, we support community food security through our Communities Feeding Communities initiative in Mt Roskill, Auckland.
