The Pink Caravan is coming to Paraparaumu area - 15 & 16 November
Each year our breast health nurses travel around New Zealand in our iconic Pink Caravan, to talk about mammograms, offer advice about checking your breasts, healthy lifestyles and family risk. Our nurses have valuable advice about symptoms, treatments, support groups and post-surgery options.
The breast care nurses have visual and hands-on displays of breast cancer symptoms that most women won’t have seen before, and will use prosthetic breasts to show what a lump feels like. We are currently touring the Porirua and Wellington regions with the Pink Caravan.
Our breast nurses would love to have a chat to you, so check out where the Caravan is headed and when it comes to a town near you, pop in and say hi.
- On 15 November, our team of breast care nurses will park the Pink caravan in Paraparaumu for the day at Coastlands Shopping centre (Coastlands Shoppingtown Ltd, State Highway 1, Paraparaumu)
- On 16 November, our team of breast care nurses will park the Pink caravan in Otaki for the day at New World (155-163 Main Highway, Ōtaki).

Paper Shredding
I will be doing a lot of paper shredding over the next few weeks. Is there anybody who would like the shredded paper. I don't know if you can use it for hamsters and other pets, maybe it could go in your compost.
Just let me know if you want some.
