Playing for Te Ora Hou Northland
on Celebrity Treasure Island
Louis Davis is representing Te Ora Hou Northland on Celebrity Treasure Island 2026.
He chose Te Ora Hou Northland because he believes in the importance of caring adults walking alongside young people as they grow, face challenges, and transition into adulthood. He has seen the value of positive youth development and knows that investing in this kind of mahi matters, because it works.
This is a special opportunity to shine a light on the work of Te Ora Hou Northland and the difference that community-based support can make for rangatahi, whānau, and our wider hapori.


Why Louis chose Te Ora Hou Northland
Louis chose Te Ora Hou Northland because he has seen firsthand the difference that caring, consistent adults can make in the lives of young people.
He believes in the importance of walking alongside rangatahi as they navigate life, discover their strengths, and move into adulthood with confidence and support. He also knows that investing in positive youth development matters because it has a lasting impact on young people, whānau, and community.
Te Ora Hou Northland reflects that kind of local, relational, community-based support.
