Presbyterian Support provides a wide range of social services in the Upper South Island region. We have been proudly support vulnerable people throughout Christchurch, Mid Canterbury, West Coast, Nelson, Marlborough and North Canterbury for over 115 years.

We provide support through our two service brands; Enliven and Family Works. Enliven helps older people to remain healthy, well and socially connected as they age. Family Works delivers social services to help children, youth and families learn, grow and thrive. We offer counselling and social work support along with a range of group programmes.

With your help we can ensure that people of all ages thrive, not just survive! $10 can buy educational resources for parents to support anxious children $25 can provide transport for an isolated older person to enjoy social interaction $50 can provide food and drinks for an older person in our day programme $150 can help a child suffering from trauma receive vital counselling support

Our vision is for a just, compassionate and inclusive society and our mission is to support children/tamāriki, young people/rangatahi, families/whānau and older people/kaumātua to be safe, strong and connected.

Presbyterian Support Upper South Island is a registered charity and relies on the support of individuals, groups and organisations to carry out our important work in the community.
