The Marina is a hormone-releasing IUD and it’s currently listed as an essential medicine by the WHO. Most OECD countries cover the cost of the Marina however, NZ is an exception and access to the Marina is subject to stringent funding restrictions. The Marina is only funded for women with anemia otherwise it costs between $400 and $600.
The Marina is one of the most effective, acceptable and well tolerated forms of contraception. It reduces monthly pains, is a management strategy for endometriosis and it reduces endometrial hyperplasia, a precursor to endometrial cancer.
The Marina has been available in NZ for over 20 years but the current restrictions make it unaffordable for many women, prompting further health inequality in NZ.
Thank you for taking the time to read/sign and please pass the petition on.

This month is all about supporting our young people, to encourage and empower them to not only be the change-makers and community builders of tomorrow but also the best versions of themselves. To listen to their perspective and remember that it’s not just about what we can teach them, but what lessons they can teach us. After all, the recipe for creating healthy, happy children includes a lot of the same ingredients for building safer, more resilient and connected communities.
Want to share your thoughts?
Let us know how you’re supporting young people in your communities this month by tagging us in your posts + using the following hashtag so we can see what you get up to:

Our short haired birman cat, Yoshi, has gone missing from Garden Lane in Torbay.
He is a ten year old male, quite timid when faced with people he doesn't know, and can't stand loud noises.
For any sightings or information please call Kevin on 0274587251 or Colleen on 0272613664.

We are currently looking for individuals who may have elevated blood sugar level (prediabetes) to participate in the study to see if antioxidant-rich plant extracts may help improve blood sugar levels. To express interest, go to: goo.gl...
Importance of this research:
An estimated 670, 000 New Zealanders have prediabetes, and many others are unaware of the condition. Prediabetes is a state higher than normal blood sugar level, but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes. However, people with prediabetes are at high risk of becoming diabetic. We are examining how nutrition such as antioxidant-rich plant extracts can prevent the progression towards diabetes.
How do you know you are at risk?
You should be tested for prediabetes if you have any of the following:
1. obesity (BMI of 30 or more, or 27 or more if you are Indo-Asian)
2. family history of early age onset of type 2 diabetes in more than one first degree relative (parent, brother or sister)
3. a woman who has had gestational diabetes
4. high blood pressure or cardiovascular disease (conditions affecting your heart and blood vessels)
You may have a quick check in the link to see if you are at risk: diabetesauckland.org.nz...
If you think you are at risk and would like to participate in the study, we would like to invite you over for a screening at your convenient time. The study requires four mornings and each session takes approximately 3 hours. You will be able to do your own work during this time. We are flexible with the time you can come for the study sessions. The study is also available on weekends. Free free to ask any questions too!
Backing projects that improve the look and feel of an area is important to Rodney communities and Rodney Local Board, which has recently approved design concepts and funding to beautify a public space in Warkworth and improve a main street in Helensville.
