I also help collect Taonga Māori TV masters - programmes in Te Reo Māori, the Māori language. I am chair of the Wellington branch of ARANZ, the Archives & Records Association of New Zealand / Te Huinga Mahara, and also a union delegate for the PSA / Te Pūkenga Here Tikanga Mahi. Talk to me about anything.
