We are a not-for-profit organisation who are based in Pukekohe, Auckland. We uregently require help with funding a wheelchair van.

Auckland

We are the only service in this area that supports young adults and children with high and complex needs. Our van Roxy has unexpectedly died. We have no choice, but to retire her. We desperately need a wheelchair van to access our community activities to pick up, drop off from home and access our community activities which benefit us both health wise and socially (hydrotherapy, gymnastics, music, medical appointments, library, bowling – just to name a few).

Without transport our service cannot continue
