Devonport Rotary and Devonport Business Association invite you breakfast to hear this inspiring talk.

David now describes himself as a genetically modified organism after his battle with terminal cancer; firstly in NZ with an escalating range of chemotherapy treatments, then the amazing luck that got him to Boston, USA to be part of a clinical trial for a radical new type of cancer treatment.

This isn’t a boring cancer talk though, it’s a story of optimism and of living life and..........you will laugh a lot!

He’s an ex-comedian, TV and Radio actor, author of three books; No.8 Re-wired, No 8 Recharged and A Mild Touch of The Cancer. In his ‘day job’, David Downs is a General Manager at New Zealand Trade and Enterprise (NZTE).

Imagine receiving this pamphlet in your letterbox. Would you be compelled to donate?

In 1923 this was sent out to Auckland's citizens, requesting help to raise the remaining £50,000 of the total £200,000 which was needed to build the new Auckland War Memorial Museum. It included a call to donate, initial drawings of the planned Museum and a list of early donors.

The people of Auckland came through and all the funds were raised! The new Auckland Museum was opened on 28 November 1929.

We’re celebrating 90 years of Auckland Museum in Auckland Domain. Read more about the origins of the building here.
