Relay For Life Northland

Natasha Judd from Cancer Society Northland

Cancer Society ‘Relay For Life’ events postponed due to COVID-19
16/3/20
The Cancer Society takes the health and well-being of our communities seriously. In response to COVID-19 we have decided to postpone our Relay For Life events scheduled between now and the 6th April.

We would like to thank all our event participants, volunteers, and staff for the huge amount of work that has been done to plan and manage these events. We look forward to announcing new event dates when we can.

Relay For Life is one of our major community events that brings people together. We celebrate those who have survived cancer, remember those who have passed away and collectively fight back by raising funds. With the funds raised, the Cancer Society can deliver vital services right across Aotearoa.

We hope to see all participants at the events later in the year. We would like to give you the opportunity to donate your registration fee to Relay For Life, however, if you would like it refunded please contact your local Cancer Society.

Participants should contact their local Cancer Society team who will be able to answer any questions they may have about the event including funds already raised in support of the Cancer Society.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.

This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
