Contact the Project
The Centrepoint Restoration Project bears witness to the events of the past at Centrepoint Community, the impacts of these events on the former children, and asks for redress by the adults. The project is a place for sharing information, be it articles, or high quality journalism, for survivors who would like to understand more what happened when they were children, and also for those who may not yet be ready to explore these issues - but may be ready in the future. The project is also an opportunity for connection, and tells survivors that they are not alone.
We would love to hear from you - whether it be to touch base to connect, to offer your comments on the project, or because you wish to be a part of the kaupapa. Either way, we would appreciate hearing from you.
Dr Caroline Ansley
Project Developer
Caroline Ansley is a medical doctor, living in Aotearoa New Zealand. She started the Centrepoint Restoration Project in 2015. She lived at Centrepoint in the mid 1980s when she was a child.
Caroline is an advocate for the interests of and the needs of children of the community who do not have a voice. All communications to Centrepoint Restoration Project will be read by Caroline and only Caroline.
Caroline works entirely in a voluntary capacity as an advocate to increase awareness around involvement and recovery from cult or high control groups, and the abuse that these groups inevitably cause.
This advocacy has lead to partnerships between Centrepoint Restoration Project and other stakeholders in the cult recovery and prevention space in New Zealand, including Gloriavale Leavers Support Trust, NZ Olive Leaf Network, PlainsFM Radio Network and DECULT Cult Awareness Conference.
