Our GM Kate Moodabe was interviewed this week on RNZ’s Nine to Noon about her decades-long fight for health equity:

Kate speaks so passionately about why local solutions to major health issues work when people collaborate with existing successful community projects in new environments that are closer to where people live.

Earlier this month Kate became the new 2025 New Zealand Primary Healthcare Awards | He Tohu Mauri Ora ProPharma Supreme Winner in recognition of her ground-breaking mahi over close to 40 years.

🎉We’re super proud that our GM Kate Moodabe was last night named the ProPharma Supreme Winner at the 2025 New Zealand Primary Healthcare Awards | He Tohu Mauri Ora! Earlier in the evening Kate took out the award for Health CareHQ Outstanding Contribution to Health.

Judges praised Kate’s “abundance of energy, determination and leadership” that led to “remarkable, and measurable, outcomes” by making healthcare more accessible.

Kate’s career in healthcare stretches over nearly 40 years. Her ground-breaking, equity-driven mahi led to the national introduction of HPV self-testing to reduce cervical cancer deaths. Equally transformative was her idea of Total Healthcare PHO's partnership with Dave Letele’s BBM Motivation to introduce point-of-care testing in gyms to boost health screening and support for people who would never ordinarily have visited a GP. She’s also extremely proud and grateful for her earlier career at ProCare including getting primary care services into three rural marae.

At the awards ceremony Kate spoke of being absolutely floored, humbled, and thankful for her recognition at the awards. She paid tribute to her family, the Total Healthcare board and the amazing people she works alongside at Tamaki Health, the PHO's management support organisation.

We’re super excited about From the Couch’s big win picking up the Leadership in Diversity and Inclusion Award at the New Zealand Sport and Recreation Awards.
