Coffee kōrero for potential female candidates in 2019 local elections
25% of our current city council are female, so in an attempt to address that in 2019, I'm organising a casual meeting to talk about barriers women may have standing in a local election and possible solutions/support. If you, or someone you know may be interested in putting their name forward next year or if you'd like to support the kaupapa - please get in touch for more details. The meeting is at 12pm Thursday the 22nd - central city venue TBA.
You can read a little more about where I'm coming from, in my blog kellifromthetron.co.nz...

From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
