Governor-General becomes patron of Rare Disorders NZ
17 May 2022
We are honoured to have received confirmation that Her Excellency, The Right Honourable Dame Cindy Kiro, GNZM, QSO, Governor-General of New Zealand, has accepted our invitation to become patron of Rare Disorders NZ.
This is an honour that will be felt widely throughout the rare disorder community in New Zealand; to have the support of someone of such high standing at a pivotal time when the community is calling for recognition and inclusion during the health system reform.
We look forward to involving Her Excellency in our work to support all New Zealanders who live with a rare condition, and the people who care for them.
