CWD are a Northland New Zealand-based registered charity CC5914

My commitment as CEO of Children with Disability NZ is to take the concept of acceptance and inclusion for disabled children and their families to every town in New Zealand, to do this I will need help with research sending emails and contacting all councils

If you are good on a computer and can work from home researching eg looking up council “have your say pages” and submitting a prepared plan. Our disabled children need to feel more included.

Please PM me of Facebook or email Glen at childrenwithdisabilitynz@gmail.com
