Volunteer with us

Tae Ora Tinana is a kaupapa-driven collective, strengthened by people who generously volunteer their time, skills, and expertise. We are always open to hearing from individuals from the physiotherapy (or student) landscape who share our commitment to hauora Māori and the future of physiotherapy in Aotearoa.

All opportunities within Tae Ora Tinana are voluntary and begin as an expression of interest only. Submitting an expression of interest does not commit you to a role — it simply opens a kōrero. Where there is mutual alignment, capacity, and shared intent, a formal follow-up process will then begin.
