The celebration of the new Paralympic force, New Zealand!

Paralympics New Zealand (PNZ) were invited by their long-time partner Adecco New Zealand to celebrate their success at Rio 2016 with over 130 guests in attendance, including 23 Paralympians and New Zealand Prime Minister John Key.

Rio 2016 was New Zealand’s most successful Paralympic Games ever, winning 21 medals –nine golds, five silvers and seven bronzes- and finishing in 13th place on the medals table, the highest in history, and as the world’s No.1 country for medals per capita. The athletes who competed in Rio shared this event with Sochi 2014 Paralympians Adam Hall, Carl Murphy and Corey Peters.
