Let's do something remarkable together!
Relay For Life is an inspirational fun event for everyone, all ages and all fitness levels. During the 12 hour carnival-style event we Celebrate with survivors, Remember loved ones lost to cancer and come together as one big community to Fight Back against cancer.
With your help we hope to raise $156,000 to provide:
● 12 x 4 week Post Radiotherapy workshops
● 1,000 x 1 hour counselling sessions
● 600 x information booklets on all types of cancer
● 300 x supportive care home visits
● 220 x oncology massages
● Cancer Research
● A year's supply of sunscreen for community events
● Patient shuttle service to Palmerston North for cancer treatment
It’s a great cause and Resene is delighted to help with colourful paints for everyone to use to decorate flags and bags during the relay.
Make sure you keep 28 March free for the Relay for Life. For more information check out taranaki.relayforlife.org.nz
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
