Kia ora, we’re holding a Waikato Disability, Whānau Hauā Forum and we want to hear from you.
At Te Whatu Ora - Health New Zealand we want you to join the conversation on enabling better access to community health and wellbeing services for those with a disability/whānau hauā.
This month’s forum will include a local health update, discussion of our new health system, localities development, and community feedback. We’ll also update you on key health and disability services related matters, and emerging initiatives. Join us online to share your knowledge and experience.

Disability Health Forums are a gathering of local people living with a disability or whānau hauā. These forums provide a platform to discuss matters important to their community, as well as an opportunity to hear updates from Te Whatu Ora, along with other health and social service providers and local organisations/groups.
We look forward to meeting you online. Nei nā mātou e whakarongo ana – we’re here to listen.
