About Us

Tui and Lark Wellspring

Tui & Lark Wellspring offers inspirational ideas, images, resources and links.  Our logo of two flighted-singing-birds, symbolises a union arising through shared interests; those of recovery approaches in health, and of mutual involvement in the arts as a source of enrichment, healing and sustenance.  We are based in the beautiful coastal city environment of Auckland in Aotearoa New Zealand and have an interest in the richness of community identity through diversity, with particular recognition of bicultural themes. We hope that in connecting with our pathways, you will find useful toanga or gems, to help you in your work or personal journey.
