ABOUT GLOW
Great Lives Our Way (GLOW) is a family collective based in Taranaki and registered as a charitable trust in 2016. Established by individual whānau / families who have united around the common goal of ensuring that the lives of their sons and daughters are lived to their fullest potential. GLOW has a specific focus on the lives of the six disabled people who are the heart and soul of GLOW as well as serving as a model of how families can work collectively to effect change.
Our focus is person-centred, emphasising self-determination and ordinary life outcomes in typical community. Our whole philosophy at GLOW is centred around each individual person, their needs, dreams, their aspirations and supporting them to create a life that ‘fits who they are intrinsically are as human beings.'
GLOW was instrumental in establishing the first peer support network for people with disabilities in Taranaki, the second in New Zealand and something about the project on sustainable outcomes you did last year and its wider application to other groups facing similar challenges.
Our vision is for people with disabilities to have full and fruitful lives, being included in their neighborhood and contributing to the community of their choice.
