Enabling Good Lives Regional meetings

Progress is happening. We shot home Tuesday morning from Lake Taupo as I had the Disabled Person’s Core Group meeting to attend. Not only that but I also had the opportunity to meet Valeria, who I sent a Search & Rescue team after in the Far North a few weeks ago. Although I got the […]
I love seeing people bitten by the climbing bug.

It was time to hit the walls. We had a great group turn up. I haven’t done a lot of climbing since the Paraclimbing competition at the end of August so it was well and truly time to hit a wall. With the Enabling Good Lives work I’m involved in it could be easy to […]
Another busy start to the week.
No rest for the wicked? This week I had the second of the Safeguarding Work Stream meetings for Enabling Good Lives. I’m still trying to get used to urban travel. We travel down to Wellington on a Monday afternoon for the meetings held on Tuesdays. It appears that heading to Wellington once a week (most […]
Time to take stock
It’s go, go, rest. I’ll be honest, I haven’t been as productive as could have been this week. I’m not hugely upset by that, sometimes I would be but this week I’m just not too bothered.

Paraclimbing trip: Part III

Competition Day 2! Finals Day!
Paraclimbing Trip: Part II
Competition Day 1! Qualification Rounds I woke on Saturday 19th of August somewhat nervous. I knew I would be a little nervous, after telling myself for the days leading up to the competition “it’s ok, you’re just going to go have fun, climb, enjoy it and promote paraclimbing” but my mind had other ideas. […]
Time to catch my breath! Paraclimbing Trip Part I
It’s been a full on few weeks! Climbing NZ, Paraclimbing trip (I) Well it’s certainly been a busy few weeks, and things didn’t go quite to plan; but it has certainly been a bit of an adventure! I’m having to take it a little easy so thanks for being patient on waiting on my […]
