Otago Youth Wellness Trust

The Otago Youth Wellness Trust (OYWT) works with the Dunedin community to make a positive difference. Dame Patricia Harrison founded the organisation in 1996 working with over 80 people from across the Dunedin community who wanted a local solution ensuring our most vulnerable young people could access a free support service.

OYWT provides a wraparound service for young people (aged 11-18), who need support for issues affecting their wellbeing. These can include health, education, welfare and justice.
