About this Event
Veterans' Affairs will be in Gisborne on Friday 5 December to meet with veterans and their whanāu from around the Tairāwhiti/Gisborne region.
Find outmore about a fourm here.
This forum is free to attend and is an opportunity for New Zealand veterans, their families and whānau to meet with staff from Veterans' Affairs to discuss entitlements and other support options.
It is being held at Poverty Bay Showgrounds, 20 Main Road, Makaraka, Gisborne.
This forum is for New Zealand veterans, whether they are still serving or have left service.
If you know of a veteran who might not be online or a bit out of touch with the support that might be available to them, please encourage them to come along too. We want to ensure all eligible veterans are receiving all the support they're entitled to.
Meet with Veterans’ Affairs staff
At this forum you can speak with staff from across Veterans’ Affairs. They will be wearing red lanyards or head to the Veterans’ Affairs table to have your application and entitlement support questions answered or just to learn about what Veterans’ Affairs can offer.
Should you need to meet with a case manager they will be available, you can make an appointment to see one on the day.
