On March 16 2024, Wellington man Stew Sexton is going to 'run' 100km around his Eastbourne neighbourhood to raise funds for New Zealand Riding for the Disabled (NZRDA). 'Run' is in inverted commas, as Mr Sexton lives with spina bifida and completes distance .
Efforts are underway to make Parliament more accessible for people who live with disability, after a new position of Senior Accessibility Advisor was established.
