Breast Cancer New Zealand is inviting people in north Rodney to come and have a chat with them when they visit in 'pinkie' the caravan next week.
BCNZ chief executive Ah-Leen Rayner said it would be a great chance for women to get advice and learn how they can reduce the risk of getting breast cancer.
“One of Pinkie’s star attractions is Bessie, a life-like torso which shows the visible signs of breast cancer. Many women are often surprised to learn what a lump actually feels like, so we urge everyone to come along and find out for themselves," Rayner said.
They will be outside the Rodney Four Square in Wellsford on Wednesday, June 1, and New World in Warkworth on Thursday, June 2. They will be there both days from 9.30am to 2.30pm.
Around 400 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in the Waitematā DHB area every year, and around 70 will die from it. Breast cancer is the most common cancer for New Zealand women but research shows the earlier it is detected, the better the outcome, according to BCNZ.
Breast Cancer Foundation NZ encourages women to be breast aware from the age of 20 and to consider starting mammograms at 40. Further advice can be sought by calling 0800 BC NURSE.

We asked, listened, and collaborated directly with farmers in the making of this gear. We tested and re-tested in on-farm environments. We re-engineered what farming workwear can be with your needs front of mind.
We brought our decades of experience creating world-class performance gear. Add to that a legacy of Kiwi innovation, a challenger spirit and a practical attitude that’s been part of Line 7 since we started back in 1963.
Every detail has been reviewed and refined – without overlooking the obvious. Breathable, flexible, functional and comfortable, while still being supremely durable and waterproof. Made to fit farmers of all shapes and sizes, with a dedicated range for women. Built to last, and last a bit longer still, with an included repair kit that means you can fix it up quickly yourself.
Now take it out there, try it on and put it to the test. Wear it out and wear it again. We’re pretty damn confident you won’t be disappointed
Kia ora koutou, I'm aware of some complaints from Whangaparāoa residents to Auckland Council regarding a harsh glare hitting their homes from a tower in the city. I'm keen to chat to anyone who can see the glare from their house - if this is you, please send me a message. Ngā mihi nui
