What's on
Dates are exactly the kind of thing a brain shouldn't have to hold. This page holds the disability expos and community events coming up around Aotearoa, checked against each event's own site, so you can just turn up.

The South Island’s biggest disability community expo. Over 100 stallholders in one friendly space: support options, living options, work, study, recreation, day-to-day life.
Anyone exploring their disability journey, and their whānau. If you only get to one event a year and you live in Canterbury, this is the one.
New Zealand’s premier annual disability equipment show. Around 80 exhibitors of equipment and services for disabled people and older people, touring five cities each autumn.
Anyone weighing up equipment options, and the whānau and professionals helping them choose. No registration needed, just turn up.
The national showcase of assistive technology and lifestyle services. Tools and services for independent living, all in one room, with people who can demonstrate them properly.
Anyone curious about what tools exist to make daily life easier, plus the professionals who help choose them.
Over 140 stalls focused on the school-leaving transition: education, career pathways, supports, recreation, housing, transport. NZSL interpreters on site.
Young disabled people leaving school, and the whānau helping them plan what comes next.
New Zealand’s conference run by and for disabled young people. Barriers and solutions, worked on by the people who live them, presented to policy makers.
Disabled young people aged roughly 16 to 30 who want their voice in the room.
These are for the people who work in disability support rather than the community itself. Listed because clients sometimes ask what shapes the system around them.
The home and community support sector’s forum on system and sector change.
Providers and people working in home and community support.
The New Zealand Disability Support Network’s annual conference. Sector direction, workforce, policy, and provider innovation.
Providers, support workers, and policy people rather than the community itself.
Neuro Support builds systems that hold what your brain can't be asked to hold. Event dates are a small, honest example. Knowing an expo exists, remembering when it runs, and actually getting there on the day are three separate executive function tasks. This page does the first two. If the third one is the hard part, that's the kind of thing we work on together.
