Mangatu Blocks is committed to strengthening the connection between our shareholders, their whānau and the whenua.
Our Whenua Access Portal makes it easy for shareholders and their whānau to register to go onto the whenua in safe, organised, and meaningful ways.

Why Registration is Required
We take the safety of our shareholders, visitors, staff, and our environment seriously. Registration allows us to manage who is on-site, maintain safe usage levels, and ensure all activities meet our health, safety, and land-use standards.
