Wheelchair accessible swing for Whangarei

Glen from Central Whangarei

2024 Wheelchair Accessible Seesaw, Raumanga. We are thrilled to share that our fundraising was successful, and as of October 2024, the construction for a wheelchair friendly seesaw is underway in Raumanga, Whangarei. We will update you with photos once construction is complete.

Now that 2024 is rolling to a successful close, we are setting our sights on our next project. We are asking you, the community, to have your say on the next location for a wheelchair friendly swing. Our two preferred locations are the playground being planned in Onerahi OR Pohe Island playground. Please vote via our poll on our Facebook page, or contact us at childrenwithdisabilitynz@gmail.com

Option one -- Onerahi
Option two -- Pohe Island

THERE'S STILL TOMORROW.
Italy, subtitles, 2023, Dramatic comedy

Delia lives in Rome in the late 1940s in a working-class community which is slowly but surely rebuilding itself after the war. She shares a small flat with her domineering husband, their three children and her sick father-in-law.

Delia resolutely deals with the daily challenges of family life and has a best friend with whom she shares moments of levity. Delia’s dream though is for her daughter, Marcella to one day have a better life than she does. Delia is resigned to her fate - the good with the bad - until one day a mysterious letter arrives.

"An inspiring story that delights in small victories and the dream of female empowerment." - Screen International
