Te Puna Wai

Te Puna Wai - Safe Haven Cafe
An after hours safe space for anyone experiencing mental health distress

Te Puna Wai is run by Mana o te Tangata Trust and operates out of our Papeoia site at 601 Featherston Street Palmerston North.
We offer after hours onsite peer support for tangata whaiora experiencing mental health distress.
DHB staff are on call should tangata whaiora require clinical support.
​
Te Puna Wai is open Fridays 5pm–10pm, and Saturday, Sunday 3pm–10pm and is run by Alyssa, Kalwyn, Frances, Reon, Anthony and Waki.
No referral is needed to access this service, anyone who could benefit from mental health support is encouraged to come and see the team. 
 Onsite kai and hot drinks are available for those who are in need of support, as well as a wide range of games and puzzles.
 
The café has been named by Desiree Smith, a kaimahi at Mana o te Tangata Trust.
Desiree explains that Te Puna Wai is named after a Spring.
​Springs are a place where you can rest and restore your mind and body in a warm, safe and healing atmosphere.
