Help us TOW our Pink Caravan (Breast Cancer Foundation NZ)

Talia from Breast Cancer Foundation NZ - Pink Caravan Education & Awareness

Kia Ora,

We are needing a volunteer to help tow our Pink Caravan, also known as Pinkie. She is a vital part of Breast Cancer Foundation NZ’s community health education and awareness program and travels around NZ with our nurses.

We need someone to help tow in the Manawatu-Whanganui region from Monday, 21 November – Friday, 25 November 2022. She needs to be dropped at sites (such as supermarkets or health centers) at 830am and then picked up again at 3pm. A couple of days or the whole week.

Please let us know if you can help! It would be much appreciated :)

If you are able to help or had any questions, please email Talia at taliac@bcf.org.nz or call 093041225 x 212.

Thank you.

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.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
