Relay For Life is an inspirational and fun team event that brings people together to celebrate cancer survivors and carers, remember loved ones lost to cancer and fight back by raising awareness and funds for the Cancer Society.

Team members take turns walking or running around a track over 12 hours while enjoying a festival atmosphere of music, activities and community spirit. Everyone and anyone can get involved, so gather your friends, family and workmates and get your team together today!

Poll: Are you a Te Huia fan?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

All three Hamilton MPs appear to be united behind the retention of the Te Huia passenger rail service between Hamilton and Auckland, as well as potentially expanding it to Tauranga.

But whether Hamilton East’s Ryan Hamilton, Hamilton West’s Tama Potaka and soon-to-be Labour list MP Georgie Dansey have the combined power to shunt transport minister Chris Bishop and Prime Minister Christopher Luxon onto their line of thinking remains to be seen.

Are you a Te Huia fan? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
