Te Puea Memorial Marae among 2017 Matariki Award nomineesChris Harrowell Chairman Hurimoana Dennis says it's an honour for Te Puea Memorial Marae to be nominated as part of this year's Matariki Awards. Te Puea Memorial Marae in south Auckland is being publicly recognised for its work with people in need. MONIQUE FORD/Stuff Key to Life Charitable Trust Mike King talks to schools as part of his work to reduce suicides. That work has led to the marae being named as one of three nominees for the Hiwa i te Rangi Award for Community as part of this year's Matariki Awards, run by Maori Television and Te Puni Kokiri. The goal of Mike King's Key to Life Charitable Trust is curbing suicide and opening dialogue around the issue.
