Please stay mindful of accessable needs in these times to, what’s inconvenient for us could be terrifying for our blind & deaf people and agony for those that can’t stand for long
Thank you
@AklTransport please communicate why & what the safely & contingency plans are,as well as all people many disabled & elderly rely on your services what is the plan to support people to get home please if both public services & stoped ?
Hey @AklTransport are the tracks flooded or some other fault? Buses are stopped too.
Needs comms asap on what people should do now.
Go back to their offices or uni & wait it out? What can people plan to do?
Is there are way to get traffic management or police to clear streets?

So true. Super ruff on disability community a daily juggling act to operate in an in accessible environment can be dangerous & scary when plans and supports change of stop,
Some challenging weather expected so please take care out there. Hard on parents, kids and school staff as this can be pretty scary.

Hey @AklTransport I know you’ll likely be trying to do your best. But the peak commuter time is NOW & if you can get more buses on that would be awesome.
This line for the NX1 snakes up around the corner and onto the PWC building mezzanine area. It is the same down at my bus.

Definitely delicate Simpson did an incredible job last time of management of him & the disaster should be a lot easier only having to manage one ☝️

Awesome piece, states hardest hit Māori & pacific actually will be disabled Māori & pacific, then disabled women on my way back to help where I can, need all the creative problem solvers we can, disabled people been solving problems with no cash since forever
Thank you for reporting on this. It makes no sense to me that we cut funding that directly supports community, shortsighted cuts that would effect long term change. Inequality in Auckland deepens, with fears budget cuts will worsen the struggle stuff.co.nz/national/politic…

2nd internal struggle- personal disability wellness & family goals, Vs professional ambition & desire to serve my community. Won’t choose trying both send luck 🍀 lol

Humility to take responsibility for lack of contingency & being driven/confident enough to try and convince funders you got the goods worth funding post recent events in business/ weather a constant internal conflict 🤔

Is diversity & inclusion & so called experts in it, that exclude disability not in fact an oxymoron? Or am I getting to sensitive? Open to feedback

3 news just now, Hold up did they just say 2018 census 1/3 Māori & pacific missed ?
Surely I didn’t hear that correctly?

Usually loose disability benefits same reason & home help, house work etc if I got into a relationship I would loose most help and support I have, imagine the bumble add, I have & it’s not flash :)
Ps I work full time, unpaid running a social enterprise
These rules are SO OUTDATED! You lose your benefit if you have a boyfriend because the man provides for you? newshub.co.nz/home/new-zeala…

Surly this can’t be real, not up for this worm hole today, anyone know, while I’m here shouldn’t they be recruiting disability reps also considering a huge % of the people they serve are disabled, 1/4 general population are, used to be 70 % ish of customers
