Thank you for being part of our journey together, weāre protecting more Kiwis than ever before. š
Weāre thrilled to share that our recent petition calling for Government funding to support MedicAlertĀ® Services has received an incredible 8,040 signatures. This strong show of public support highlights how much New Zealanders value the life-saving protection MedicAlertĀ® provides.
We extend out heartfelt thanks to everyone who signed and shared the petition. Together weāre one step closer to ensuring equitable access for all who need it, but the job is still not complete. We encourage you to write to the Health Ā Minister (Simeon Brown), tell him your story and implore him to act, so Ā vulnerable disabled people and those with communication impairments can Ā affordably access and benefit from the Foundations proven and valuable servicesĀ across New Zealand.
