ko Raun Makirere-Haerewa ahau

Kia ora koutou, my name is Raun Makirere-Haerewa and I am the chairman and the day to day hands on worker of Te Kaha Rangatahi Charitable Trust. I have a background in athlete development and have worked as a strength & conditioning coach for the past 5 years with young emerging athletes. Over the last 3 years I have made the move to more community development work with rangatahi. I have a great passion for working with Māori rangatahi to help them realize their potential and their cultural identity. I am always open to kōrero with people about what we do as a trust and to help where ever possible.
