Brian Coffey

Board Member

I am proudly of Te Atiawa ki Whanganui a Tara descent, living in the Hutt Valley.

I am an experienced senior public servant who has been involved in disability and mental health provision both at a service provision and national policy level. I have worked as a teacher and registered psychologist and at a flax root level, many years ago as a support worker, I was involved in establishing one of the first community houses in the Hutt Valley for people moving from long term hospital level services.

My experience in governance has been developed through involvement in a number of governance entities across government as well as in government/non-government initiatives.

Building on what Pathways has achieved developing great services for those with mental health needs and supporting opportunities for the future is what motivates my participation on the Wise Services Board. I look forward to bringing perspective as a family member of a person who has been a user of mental health services into my role.
