Coffee Groups
Coffee Group events are a good way to connect with other members, socialise and make friends. The Cerebral Palsy Society currently has groups running in a few regions around New Zealand, enabling members living with Cerebral Palsy to connect. Please come along and join us – check out our list of Coffee Group locations below.
A companion, support worker and/or family member is welcome to accompany members to these groups. Up to $15 worth of refreshments per person is provided compliments of the Cerebral Palsy Society.
Please note:
- Anyone who requires help or assistance to attend Coffee Group must be accompanied by a carer or support worker.
- Attendees need to be a financial member of the Cerebral Palsy Society. You can learn more about becoming a member here.
If you have any questions, or you are interested in attending a Coffee Group but there is not one currently set up in your area, please contact us at cpsociety@cpsociety.org.nz.
If you want to attend a coffee group but the day/time/venue of an existing group doesn’t work for you, please contact the Society to discuss your needs.
We are always looking for local people to host groups in their community.
