DRC Southland is pleased announce that they have secured premises for the Disabilities Resource Centre Queenstown. The Centre will be situated in the Gorge Road Retail Centre and it is planned to open before Christmas. Initially, services provided will include Disability Information and Advisory services and Adaptive Equipment services. A number of other providers will also use the Centre as a base for their services to people in the Queenstown area.
General Manager, Carol Wood, says “This is an exciting time for people with disabilities, and those who support them, in the Queenstown area. The Centre will be a first stop shop for information about anything and everything to do with disability.”
Further services will run from the Centre in response to identified need. DRC Queenstown will be seeking service user input via a Consumer Advisory Group. Any disabled person in the Queenstown area who would like to apply to be a member of this Group should contact Carol Wood (03 214 5000 or 0800 100 531, or email carol@drcsouth.co.nz )
