Discover your rights with the CAB!

Sacha Green from Citizens Advice Bureau New Zealand

Do you know what your rights are at work? How about your rights to do with renting or owning a home? If you buy something that’s faulty do you know what your options are? This CAB Awareness Week from 8-14 April you’re being invited to Discover Your Rights – Tūhuratia ō motika!

Do you know what your rights are at work? How about your rights to do with renting or owning a home? If you buy something that’s faulty do you know what your options are? This CAB Awareness Week from 8-14 April you’re being invited to Discover Your Rights – Tūhuratia ō motika!

Helping people to know what their rights and responsibilities are and how they can act on these is core to what the Citizens Advice Bureau is about. We help people from all walks of life to access the information they need so they are empowered to take next steps and to resolve their problems.

A highlight of this year’s Awareness Week is the launch of the CAB’s new public website - www.cab.org.nz.... After a year of development and user testing, the resulting website provides an accessible, mobile-friendly, knowledgebase of 2,000 questions and answers about people’s rights that are based on real issues confronted by clients.

The information about rights is grounded in the law but is practical and is expressed in a way that’s easy to understand.

The website also provides a directory of more than 30,000 community organisations so that the CAB can help connect people with any additional services they need.

We’re keen to break down any barriers people face in finding out what their rights are. Our new website is a fantastic resource for the whole community, and complements the amazing face-to-face and phone service provided by our skilled and dedicated volunteers.

We invite you to Discover Your Rights with us this Awareness Week by checking out our new website www.cab.org.nz..., calling us 0800 367 222, or by visiting your local CAB. We’re here to help.

When: 10am Wednesday April 17, 2019. Doors open at 9.30 with refreshments.



Where: Bridge Club Rooms, Neil Hunt Park, Lynmore, Rotorua


New Zealand-trained and Rotorua-based, Annette is an innovative teacher and speech language therapist who works alongside parents and teachers with students who have difficulties in the area of speech, language and literacy development.


She will explain how and why our communication skills are constantly evolving to meet the various stages in our lives.


But this process is often taken for granted. Many people struggle for a variety of reasons and the resulting effects on their lives can be huge.


Annette will present an overview of the importance of acquiring early language, a process she links to the transition to literacy.


Believing that having fun is a prime motivator, Annette weaves humour into her work and her presentations.


Visitors welcome. Gold coin entry for U3A guests.
