Hi everyone, 

I just wanted to thank everyone again, for your support with this petition, and especially those who signed Amy Blaikie’s also in 2020.

I was sent a message today, from James Meager MP- one of the first people we took this petition to. 
He sent a picture of part of the recent coalition agreement- and it reads:

“Direct government agencies, where practical and appropriate, to preference the use of woollen fibres rather than artificial fibres in government buildings”.

An amazing first step- obviously it’s conditional, and can be got out of reasonably easily- but the fact that three parties saw it as important enough to be included in the coalition agreement is definitely a good sign of progress!!! 

Please keep supporting wool, and NZ, especially in the lead up to Christmas- you would be surprised about how many things you can source that are made in NZ, made of NZ wool, and making a difference to the NZ ecomomy.  

Thankyou again,

Ange
