Targeted exercise can help fight cancer

The Prostate Cancer Foundation

Gavyn and the team at Growing Younger in Howick are excited to be working with the Prostate Cancer Foundation NZ to launch Prost-FIT; a fitness class designed especially for men with prostate cancer.

The Growing Younger team is keen to invite men along to a Prost-FIT class to ‘give it a go’.

The first class is free and, to quote Steve, a member of a Christchurch Prost-FIT class, “Prost-FIT has been fantastic for my general health and wellbeing. I look forward to the class and would recommend it highly to others who may be in the same situation as me.”

When: Tuesdays 6pm
Where: Growing Younger 18D Highland Park Drive, Pakuranga
Cost: $10 per class (funding available)

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.

Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.

For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.

Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?

We hope this brings a smile!
