Kaumātua grants

By

A kaumātua grant of $260 will be paid in mid-November 2016 to all enrolled Ngāi Tahu aged 65 and older. Letters regarding the payment will be posted mid-September. Currently we have around 260 people (below) who are listed as enrolled on our database and therefore are eligible to receive the grant but for whom we don’t have an up-to-date address. If you are able to provide any updated details for anyone listed here or if you have any queries please email: [email protected] or call the contact centre on 0800 942 472.

We are aware that some of the people on this list may have passed away. If this is the case we apologise for any distress this may have caused and ask that you contact us as soon as possible, so we can update our information.
