Thanks for this, Pierre. It’s reassuring to have a plan for what’s worked.

Pierre if what you are suggesting means that each month a five minute presentation is available I would have the capacity to present it to my local council (though I need to check they can accommodate presentations on Zoom/Teams etc). What I don't have time to do is to pull information together for a presentation so if one was ready-made that would be super useful.

I'll forward this on to Pierre, Julie! In the meantime, I think it might be easier for him to get in touch with you via the form linked: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeEFmii9iMlIu4zmyV1RzE88fSxqlJZM9Bu6-XMVyuzI4kHiw/viewform

Kia ora Julie,

We do the speeches every month both at our district council and at the regional council, so they can be re-used. Some of them are more focused on our local issues than others and have to be adapted, but it is fairly easy and we can communicate about it. I generally have more ideas of subjects to talk about than time to cover them all.

If you want to see more details as Jenny said, all the information and links to our previous speeches are available at this address:

For Zoom presentations, it was definitively happening virtually during lockdowns so I imagine that it is still possible in most councils, but you will have to ask your local council if they'll accept it.

Don't hesitate to contact me directly at this email:
