Give today so no one faces cancer alone.

Cancer Society

A cancer diagnosis can wreak both an emotional and physical trauma, not only on the patient but also on their whānau and friends.

Record numbers of New Zealanders being diagnosed with cancer combined with an increase in service costs has led to The Cancer Society issuing an urgent call for help this Daffodil Day.

The Cancer Society relies on the generous support of the New Zealand public to support their free-of-charge services like accommodation, meals and transport to treatment for those facing cancer.

Please give generously this Daffodil Day, Friday 25 August and Saturday 26 August. Donate here

Poll: Should we ditch daylight saving? 🕰️

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

First introduced in New Zealand in 1927 with the passing of the Summer Time Act, it's what we know as 'Daylight Saving' and this year it ends on the first Sunday in April.

While we do get to sleep in this time around, some people would like to scrap the clock tinkering for good.

And why? Some evidence suggests the time changes are bad for our health as they mess with sleep patterns leading to short-term fatigue and affecting mood. Meanwhile the hour change is frustrating for farmers and a nightmare for getting the littlies to sleep. But what's your take?
