I’m so appreciative of the Cancer Society’s support and incredibly passionate about the research they fund. I hope by leaving a bequest, this will help cancer researchers find a cure.”
You can join Tanya in making the greatest gift of hope for those facing cancer in the future.

It will give him something to do tomorrow! If Dad lives afar, ask someone at his end to do it on your behalf. There's no shortage of toilet paper in New Zealand, so let rip (but remember to leave a roll or two for .... emergencies so you're good to go). Post your pics on Neighbourly.

Stores from Pōkeno to Warworth will open their doors for a priority access hour from 7am to 8am every day to give these workers the time and space they need to pick up essential goods.
Spokesperson Kiri Hannifin said opening a little earlier is one small way Countdown can relieve pressure on those “working at the coalface” of the latest outbreak in Auckland.
“These workers, particularly those caring for hospitalised Covid-19 patients or the large number of Kiwis currently in managed isolation, are working under huge amounts of pressure,” she said.
“Opening our doors to them an hour ahead of the public will give them the ability to shop in peace and access to freshly stocked shelves.”
Workers who can use the priority access hour include police, fire service, MIQ, ambulance, paramedic, DHB, hospital and medical personnel.

Meet Derek Ereatara who shares his journey with Awanuiārangi.
The Bachelor of Humanities programme marked a turning point in Derek’s life. “The content – indigenous studies, policy and business – fit right in with what I wanted. I knew it would help me personally and in my work with whānau in the health sector.
“It helped me to think differently, that opens up your world view.” he says.
Looking at everything with fresh eyes “shifted, enhanced and reinforced” his focus, particularly in working with rangatahi who need one-to-one support.
“Awanuiārangi was like a second home, and still is. You just feel welcome.
