Help us design a disability responsiveness system
He mihi nui ki a koutou katoa. Nau mai Haere mai. Homai ō whakāro mo te Waikato DHB Disability Responsiveness Plan.
Kia ora. Early this year we held a Disability Workshop seeking information on the challenges whānau hauā (people living with a disability and their whānau) face when accessing health services.
We listened to your kōrero and now have a draft Disability Responsiveness Plan that provides goals and actions for Waikato DHB to implement in order to eliminate the barriers and inequities faced by whānau hauā, in particular Māori, Pasifika and rural whānau hauā.
Date: Tuesday 8 October from 11am - 1pm
Venue: South Waikato Sport and Events Centre, 25 Mossop Rd, Tokoroa

What's your favourite piece of Waikato history?
Car parks inspired a milking shed design that took off around the world and became a piece of Waikato District history.
A hundred-year-old church and gravestones from the 1880s will also feature as the district turns the spotlight on its past for its first Heritage Day on April 20.
