Toi Te Ora - Public Health Service, in partnership with the Horizon Energy Library at Te Kōputu a te whanga a Toi, has set up a public health information stand which enables community access to valuable information on health-related issues.

If you’d like to know about healthy eating for you and your family, or why it’s important to monitor sore throats, then visit the public health information stand at the Horizon Energy Library.

Te Kōputu’s Library Services Supervisor, Kim Johnston, says the brochures are a practical addition to the Library’s health information. “The stand is positioned near the Library’s health information books, and will extend the information available to users,” she says.

The free brochures have up-to-date, New Zealand-based information which is relevant to everyone in our community.

 Toi Te Ora Health Information Advisor, Lorraine Howarth says they are pleased to have the opportunity to provide the information through the Library. “It’s one of the most accessible and highly visited facilities in our community, so we’re grateful to have that level of prominence for our information.”

 The health information stand will be regularly maintained by Toi Te Ora. Anyone looking for additional information may like to visit Toi Te Ora – Public Health Service’s website, where they can access the full range of public health information brochures at www.ttophs.govt.nz.
