WELCOME TO ACHILLES INTERNATIONAL NEW ZEALAND

OUR VISION

To provide New Zealanders with disabilities the opportunity to participate alongside able-bodied athletes in local, national and international events.

A Special welcome to Lian and Noel from parkrun New Zealand. The National Manager had a very productive meeting with Lian and Noel and as a result Achilles NZ and parkrun have engaged in a new partnership which we believe will be of immense benefit to both organisations. As Lian and Noel have indicated “parkrun New Zealand aims to support and assist Achilles NZ members, walkers and runners in taking part in parkrun events and encouraging support amongst the parkrun community”

Please see your local Chapter lead for more information concerning the nearest parkrun venue if you feel like participating in a 5km on a Saturday morning around New Zealand.
