Glenmore Lighthouse Community Remand Home OPCAT monitoring report

Mana Mokopuna conducted an unannounced one-day follow-up visit to Glenmore Lighthouse run by Kia Puāwai in May 2025 as part of its NPM visit programme. The objective of our OPCAT monitoring as a National Preventative Measure is to prevent ill-treatment in all places where mokopuna are deprived of their liberty by regularly monitoring and assessing the standard of care experienced in these facilities.

These visits are designed to take place between full monitoring visits to continue to strengthen the relationship between the Mana Mokopuna OPCAT Monitoring team and the community providers delivering the service in the remand homes.

The purpose of this report is to provide a summary of progress against recommendations made in the previous full OPCAT monitoring visit in June 2023, assess how Glenmore Lighthouse is operating now, and hear what mokopuna say about their time living there.
