Tiaho Trust, in collaboration with the Disabled Persons Assembly (DPA), is hosting a Meet the Candidates event for Whangārei’s disability community, whānau and supporters.
This non-partisan event is an opportunity to hear directly from local candidates about the issues affecting disabled people and their whānau. We want the discussion to reflect what matters most to our community—and we need your help to shape it.
What should we ask the candidates?
Complete our short survey to suggest a question or vote for the topics you most want candidates to address. The most popular questions will be provided to the candidates before the event.
