Regional Accessibility Strategy for Te Tai Tokerau
High five! There is now a Regional Accessibility Strategy, a joint-effort by all four Councils in Te Tai Tokerau Northland.
Thanks to your feedback we have found shared values, outcomes, vision and actions to improve accessibility and the experiences of people with access needs. The strategy is about what we can do to make Te Tai Tokerau more inclusive and accessible:
✅ Inclusive: If something is inclusive, everyone can be involved.
✅ Accessible: If something is accessible, everyone can use it.
You can check out the strategy or a summary in 7 accessible formats including audio, NZ Sign Language, Reo Māori and more at this link:

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already!
