Thank Your Cleaner Day.
Work hard, keep us safe and go the extra mile – that’s what Aotearoa’s 40,000 cleaners do every day. They keep our schools, healthcare centres, shopping malls, places of work and public spaces hygienic and safe for us all to enjoy. That’s been especially important over the last 18 months. Our cleaners have been out amongst it on the frontline fighting against the spread of COVID-19.
On Wednesday, 20 October it’s time to acknowledge these superstars. Make sure you say thanks to the cleaner in your life!

✔️ Offer free support with our Health Coach who can help implement lifestyle changes to reduce your risk.
This assessment helps us work together to keep your heart healthy and prevent future problems.
