William Piahana

Kaumātua

He uri ahau nō Tauranga Moana.


Wi plays a big part in our Manwaora Integrative Health and Research whānau. He joined through one of our early research projects and from then on has continued to support our kaupapa whether it be sharing his mātauranga of Tauranga Moana, being a part of other research kaupapa or making every person come through the doors feel welcome.


Wi shares his aroha in many different spaces (like Envirohub and Pyes Pa School) and with many different people. He is a pou within our Manawaora whānau.
