Te Omanga’s Fundraising and Marketing team are a dedicated resource of professional events, fundraising, communications, sponsorship and marketing experts. Each year this team, along with our Retail Team, needs to raise nearly $3 million to bridge the gap between the support of local DHBs and the cost to provide our services.
Debbie Ferrel
Fundraising Events Manager
Born and bred in the Hutt Valley, I enjoy helping people and making a difference in our community. My role in the Fundraising Team is to organise and manage our events . Prior to starting at the hospice I was involved in fundraising by opening my home for the 10 Tables Christmas Tour. Through this involvement I learnt what an amazing place Te Omanga is and experienced the passion so many people have for it. Te Omanga truly is a very special place and plays such a huge part in our community.

Rachel Nankivell
Bequest Liaison and Community Fundraising Coordinator
Kia ora, I am a long-time Lower Hutt resident – born and raised in Waiwhetu. Like many of you, I have been blessed by the compassionate care my friends and family received through Te Omanga Hospice at the end of their lives and am honoured to be part of the team responsible for raising the funds to enable this service to remain freely available to all in the Hutt Valley.
I look after our Gifts in Wills programme, including our Marion and Max Cooper Fellowship – a community of people who have left a gift for the hospice in their wills. Please contact me if you wish to discuss a gift in your will.
