It’s Time! Meet with your MP and help make a difference.

T1D Community – time to meet your MP!

The time has come to find out who your MP is, organise a meeting and prepare for your korero. Don’t forget to ask them if they will remember you when making decisions about the health spending!

The key reason you’re meeting with your MP is to raise awareness about living in a family with T1D. Remember you are the expert! Be confident about what you do know and offer to get back to them on anything that you don’t.
