The Pink Caravan is coming to Palmerston North area - 18 -19 - 22 & 23 November

Emilie Petitdemange from Pink Caravan Education & Awareness - Palmerston North

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 women won’t have seen before, and will use prosthetic breasts to show what a lump feels like. We are currently touring the Manawatu - Whanganui regions with the Pink Caravan.

Our breast nurses would love to have a chat to you, so check out where the Caravan is headed and when it comes to a town near you, pop in and say hi.

- On 18 November, our team of breast care nurses will park the Pink caravan in Fielding for the day at New World store (42 Aorangi Street, Feilding)

- On 19 November, the Pink caravan will be parked in Palmerston North for the day at Pak N Save store (327 Ferguson Street, Palmerston North)

- On 22 November, the Pink caravan will be parked in Palmerston North for the day at New World store (179/197 Main Street, Takaro, Palmerston North)

- On 23 November, the Pink caravan will be parked in Pahiatua for the day at New World store (103 Main Street, Pahiatua)

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
