Advisory groups
Any views I express here are my personal views.
COVID19 huge efforts and truckloads of money are going to save businesses.
Advisory groups either local or national work hard to be heard. As a disabled person, I find it sad that these groups are being marginalized.
It is a fact in the next few months NZ and the world's economy are going to collapse. it is going to happen.
I am finding the advisory groups are being spoken to and not listened to. This is across the board in NZ.
Disabled people will die if COVID gets away many know that and need support now moving forward.
These advisory groups either focus on tomorrow or the 20-year plan. What type of mess would businesses be in if we only talked about the 1-day plan or the 20-year plan
Would it not be good to listen to us about current and ongoing issues.
The next two years can be the difference between life and death for many sitting on these groups I include aged advisory groups all over NZ
The media is welcome to contact me to hear my personal views.
Being an active disabled accessibility advocate I would like to offer a monthly article written by myself but contributed to by others.
The leader would be a good place to be heard. Unlike others, I would write about matters affecting the disabled.

I am an odd number. Take away a letter and I become even. What number am I?

Scam Alert: Bank cold calls
ASB is warning customers about reports of cold calls from scammers claiming to be from ASB. These scammers are trying to obtain personal information, including usernames, dates of birth, and verification codes sent to your mobile phone.
🛡️ The "Caller Check" Test
If you get a call from someone claiming to be from ASB and you’re unsure, just ask them for a Caller Check. You will then be able to verify the call through the app.
Remember, banks will:
❌ Never ask for your banking passwords, PINs, or verification codes
❌ Never need to know your full credit card number – especially the CVC
❌ Never ask you to download software or remotely access your device
❌ Never ask you to purchase gift cards or transfer funds.
If you have received a phone call and think your account has been compromised, call ASB on 0800 ASB FRAUD (0800 272 372), or visit your local branch.
Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
