Join the likes of Kiwi league great Tawera Nikau and All Black great Frank Bunce for the Hope and Possibility 5km Fun Run.
It is an opportunity for people with and without disabilities at all levels of fitness to compete together in a mainstream event. Participants range from Paralympic hopefuls to recently wounded veterans to severely disabled individuals taking part in their first athletic endeavour. Each has the opportunity to be active and achieve - consistent with Achilles’ mission that athletic success leads to increased aspiration in all areas of life.
Achilles New Zealand is excited about our future and the change than can occur through the implementation of Hope and Possibility and Achilles Kids.
Through seeing people with disabilities make tremendous gains physically, intellectually and socially through physical activities we want to see more people pushing their barriers, enjoying the outdoors and increasing their ability. Hope and Possibility and Achilles kids gives us the means to promote our vision and get more people partaking in our events and more people familiar with Achilles International.
Every time a person with a disability is recognised in the mainstream World as a full human being that is a Victory for Humanity.
All proceeds go to Achilles NZ.
