The Wellington City Mission To Launch Free Dental ServiceThe Wellington City Mission, in partnership with Ora Toa Pōneke, is launching a new free Dental Service at Whakamaru, its community hub in Wellington. The Whakamaru Dental Service has been created to meet this need, providing accessible, free, trauma-informed dental care for people who face significant barriers to accessing traditional dental services. Designed with people at its centre, the Whakamaru Dental Service offers free dental care in a safe and familiar environment. Referrals will be made through external social agencies across the Greater Wellington region, alongside internal referrals from within Wellington City Mission services. Through Whakamaru, the Wellington City Mission seeks to achieve empowerment, transformation, and fullness of life for everyone in our community.
