ALL PARAFED AUCKLAND PROGRAMMES AND EVENTS ARE CANCELLED.
Due to the unfolding events of COVID-19, we have decided to cancel all events and programmes until the all clear. From the 19th March 2020, there will be NO Parafed Auckland classes or training sessions.
This has been a difficult decision to make, but for the safety of all our athletes, members and their families, we would rather go without, then the possibility of sickness.
We will not close though! We are still here to support you through this difficult time with information and advice while this world event unfolds. Please contact any of our team at any time if you have questions or need any sort of support.
On our website, contact details are in the staff section and we have provided links to information sources about this virus.
Parafed Auckland has been through a huge amount of change over the last 12 months, new staff and board members coupled with an Auckland wide strategy consultation and the launch of our new membership.
This Impact report is a snap shot of the growth and development of Parafed Auckland over the last 12 months. The Strategy has allowed us to increase variety, reach and quality of our programmes. The monthly recreation sessions for juniors has seen dozens of young people try new things, develop new friendships and show their parents what is possible.
More so than ever we are engaging new people, collaborating with our partners to deliver better quality programmes and connect Aucklanders living with disabilities to quality opportunities in Sport and Recreation.
This Impact Report details our progress against the strategy we set in early 2019 and includes some amazing stories on our members, projects and programmes.
Have a good read!!!
