Kerry Wilfred-Riley
I am originally from the far north and moved with my family to settle in the beautiful Waikato some years ago. Due to an illness, I underwent multiple amputations and have used prosthetic limbs for the past twenty years, I lead a relatively busy life, enjoying my time with family, friends, and assorted fur babies. I have a keen interest in the affairs of the disability community and enjoy working alongside others to achieve a common goal.
