Buckle up fam!! We are off to Parliament - it's time for our voices to be heard! Come and join us as we hand our petition to be accepted by the fabulous Greens MP Jan Logie!

We are holding an event on Monday May 31st, the day before Jan accepts our petition (Tuesday June 1st). At this event, we want to bring together politicians, the media, and the public. We want to give ourselves as a community a voice and a platform; to offer insight to the public and the government of how the Total Mobility scheme does not, in fact, enable us to be totally mobile.

Whether you’re a TM user, a writer, a journalist, member of a DPO, a politician, an ally, or even an opponent - we invite you to experience why our kaupapa is so deeply important. Over nibbles!
