Thank you for inviting me to the launch of your home safety flipchart.

This is important information that will support Napier’s older people to live safely and confidently in the community.

You have had a number of partners in developing this resource and there is no doubt that a job shared is a job well done. This flipchart is an excellent example of what agencies can do when they work together in partnership.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen.

It is my pleasure to join you at your annual general meeting. Thank you for inviting me.

I would like to acknowledge your organisation's office holders and board members.
