Hi John,



In this update: 



- Meet Erica this Wednesday at the Ōtaki RSA

- Better healthcare in our region

- How you can help

- Public debate details



Erica Stanford in Ōtaki







Join us on Wednesday at 5.30 in the RSA. The bar will be open and Erica will speak about education and we'll take questions on whatever you'd like to talk about. If you haven't met Erica before you'll want to - not to be missed.



Better local healthcare







Lots of you joined us last week for a public meeting with Dr Shane Reti where he talked about National's plans for health.



We also visited local clinics meeting nurses, doctors, support staff and more. Dr Shane and I are working together on a plan to deliver more healthcare closer to home. This includes options for things like chemo and day surgery to be delivered in our region, not travelling to hospitals like Palmerston North and Wellington. You can be sure that if I'm your local MP this is something that will remain top of my list. 



Waitlists are a huge problem that have got out of control under Labour, and are one of our three priorities for health along with improvements to preventative care and growing our workforce, including more GPs. More details here. <[link removed]>



Get involved!







Only seven weeks to go and we need a strong team to get over the line. Can you help me with one of these?



- Sign waving (on the side of the road - it's more fun than you might think!)

- Morning sign checks (checking on the ones in your area for damage)

- Attending debates (see the details below)

- Polling booth scrutineers (we need a bright friendly face in each polling booth)



Contact our amazing volunteer coordinator Lorraine <mailto:[email protected]> if you can help.



Public debates







We've had amazing crowds for our recent public meetings with Christopher Luxon (and Shane Reti, Nicola Willis, Todd McClay, Mark Mitchell and more).
