One of the keys to success in making changes to Government policy lies in the support from people affected by particular issues.
We have many examples of where your support has had a huge impact on making change happen. For example MS Queensland clients writing to their local member of Government sharing information of how the impact of heat affects their MS and the increase in the financial cost that is experienced as a result. The many letters that were forwarded to local members of Government were acknowledged and recognised in Queensland Parliament and aided considerably in the fantastic result of a Medical Cooling and Heating Concession Scheme later introduced.
Last year, there was also great success when MS clients wrote to their local members of Government and the Minister for Transport, regarding proposed changes to the Red Disability Parking permit. Please listen to Toni Pease and hear of the great outcome she achieved by writing a letter and sharing her concerns.
