Friday 8 August | 9:00 AM – 4:00 PM | Forum North, Whangārei
Tiaho Trust is proud to present Te Tai Tokerau’s premier event celebrating accessibility, inclusion, and community connection – the Getting Out There EXPO 2025.
This free event brings together over 50 stallholders, from mobility and disability equipment providers to senior support organisations, health services, and community groups, all in one place. With the theme “Accessible Horizons – Experience Inclusion,” the EXPO is dedicated to connecting disabled people and senior citizens with the services, support, and tools they need to live full and independent lives.
Attendees will enjoy a lively and engaging day that includes:
- A fashion parade showcasing confidence and self-expression
- Spot prizes throughout the day
- Recognition of Northland’s most accessible and inclusive places, nominated by the community through Tiaho Trust’s recent disability survey
This year’s event also offers a fantastic opportunity to meet the businesses and organisations that have been recognised by our community as leaders in accessibility and inclusion. Come along and discover what they’re doing to make a difference.
