Want to help people living with disabilities in the Far North? Great! The council’s Disability Action Group needs new members. The group gives input on urban planning decisions - particularly how to improve towns and parks for those navigating life with a disability. How able-bodied people can make life easier for everyone – including those with disabilities - is also a focus of the group.
Watch David Senior and Derek Donker explain the challenges faced by the disabled community – including the illegal use of mobility car parks and the impact it has.
If you are interested in joining the Disability Action Group, please contact the group’s co-ordinator, Kim Hammond - kim.hammond@fndc.govt.nz
