Mō mātou - About us

When you join Presbyterian Support Central (PSC), you’re becoming part of something truly special, a not-for-profit organisation that’s been helping people for more than 115 years. Everything we do is about supporting people at the most vulnerable times of their lives, whether that’s an older person needing care and connection, or a family working through tough times.

PSC has two well-known service brands that lie at the heart of our mahi:

Enliven: our positive ageing services that create age-friendly communities where older people have companionship, choice, fun, and purpose.

Family Works: our social services supporting children and whānau through counselling, social work, life-skills and parenting programmes and safety services.

Our Enliven Bureau team plays a vital role in ensuring our homes and services are safely staffed, helping deliver consistent, high-quality care to older people across the region. Working in the Bureau offers variety, flexibility, and the opportunity to make a meaningful difference every day. When you join the Bureau, you become part of a caring and supportive team dedicated to helping older people live well.
