Catherine Healey, Sex Worker Rights’ Activist
NZPC Founding Member
This lady doesn’t just talk the talk, she’s walked the walk ….. most likely in fishnets and stilettos!
Catherine and her fellow NZPC members initiated the campaign to decriminalize prostitution.
She continues to work behind the scenes for our rights here in New Zealand, but is also sought after Internationally to assist sex workers in other countries.
In 2010, Catherine was invited to the University of Oxford in England, to debate whether prostitution should be decriminalized there. She won the debate. The House of Commons in the UK has also invited her there to speak on issues and policies related to prostitution.
Catherine will be joining us and will talk a little about (not sure what you’re wanting to talk about, so would you please just tell me what you are wanting to talk about/on etc.)
“I remember opening one of our first letters from another sex worker just after we started meeting together. It said “Great idea, but shame it will never get off the ground”. As quoted by Catherine Healey.
Bridie Sweetman LLB, BCom, LLM Honours
NZPC, Law and Policy Advisor
To say that this lady is Passionate about Human Rights just doesn’t do Justice.
In addition to her work with NZPC, (a role that is the first of its kind globally) she also assists escorts in matters relating to contract Issues, privacy issues and harassment issues. Not one to be accused of idleness, Bridie has just completing her Masters of Law, International Human Rights.

Diligently blunt, yet somehow also eloquent this woman is definitely someone you want in your corner!

This woman just seems to be everywhere – when she’s not managing five of the hottest male strippers around, you might find her suspended by her silks - just about anywhere she can hang herself from.
Like the multiple hoola - hoops she so effortless contorts herself through, Venus manages a never-ending array of workshops teaching hoola - hoops, aerial silks, burlesque dancing and horse vaulting.
Having appeared as the Cover girl on countless magazines internationally and appearing/performing for events and television Internationally—she certainly knows what works for the camera.
Marketing Yourself – How to maximize exposure when regular advertising options are illegal for us.
Steve Crow, MSc Honours, MBA
CEO, Grafton Marketing Ltd.
Who better to learn from than a man who has done it wrong – 133 convictions wrong! Love him or hate him, Steve is one of New Zealand’s more controversial figures. You might know him better as the man behind “Boobs on Bikes” and the Erotica Expo, and he’s coming to share his wisdom with us.
Steve obtained his Masters in Marine Biology at Auckland University and Masters of Business Administration at Melbourne University. He has worked all over the World in a wide variety of fields, Marine Biologist, Commercial Diver, Pedlar of Robots, and Pedlar of Porn …to name a few.
In researching him, one of the nicest things I found out is that he fronted up to two women he did not know to assist them with a legal battle by funding their Court Case. Yes, 2 ladies flashed Prince Charles, and then were arrested.
“I thought, hang on a sec, that can’t be right. If a guy did it, he wouldn’t be arrested”, Quoted by Steve Crow. The ladies’ lawyers subsequently declined his assistance, however, Boobs on Bikes was born.
Steve also runs the advertising platform www.girl4u.co.nz
