The Pink Caravan is coming to Christchurch!
The last dates have been booked for our South Island Tour!
Each year our breast health nurses travel around New Zealand in our iconic Pink Caravan, to talk about mammograms, offer advice about checking your breasts, healthy lifestyles and family risk.
Our nurses have valuable advice about symptoms, treatments, support groups and post-surgery options. The breast care nurses have visual and hands-on displays of breast cancer symptoms that most haven’t seen before, and will use prosthetic breasts to show what a lump feels like.
Our breast nurses would love to have a chat to you so pop in and say hi. We’ll be at the locations below on the following dates:

Poll: Would you commute by public transport if it was free?
Using your car is convenient, except for finding parking.
Cycling lets you leave anytime, but you might arrive soaked.
So, neighbours, if public transport had the perk of being free, would it be your main way to commute?

Poll: Does grocery bagging affect where you shop?
There's only a few differences between our larger chain supermarkets here in New Zealand. Having someone bag your groceries is one of them.
Does having your groceries packed for you at the checkout influence where you do your grocery shop? If so, tell us why.
