National Day of Reflection for Survivors of Abuse in Care Wednesday 12 November, 2025

Today is the National Day of Reflection for survivors of abuse in care – a time for New Zealand to acknowledge survivors of abuse in care, honour those who have passed, and reflect on the lessons of our shared history. 

At Brackenridge, our mahi is grounded in mana-enhancing support. This day reminds us why our commitment to safety, dignity, and respect matters so deeply. Thank you for the aroha and care you show every day – it truly makes a difference. 

If you can, please take a moment today to pause and reaffirm our shared responsibility to create environments where people feel safe, valued, and heard. 

If today brings up difficult feelings, support is available. You can reach out to Safe to Talk on 0800 044 334 or visit https://safetotalk.nz.
