The Pink Caravan is coming to North Wellington - 2 November / 4 Nov / 9 Nov

Emilie Petitdemange from Pink Caravan Education & Awareness - North Wellington

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 North Wellington region 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 2 November, our team of breast care nurses will park the Pink caravan in Churton Park for the day at New World store (69 Lakewood Avenue, Churton Park, Wellington)

- On 4 November, the Pink caravan will be parked in Johnsonville for the day at Countdown store (71 Johnsonville Road, Johnsonville, Wellington)

- On 9 November, the Pink caravan will be parked in Newlands for the day at New World store (Cnr Newlands and, Bracken Road, Newlands, Wellington)

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.

This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Do you think this ban is reasonable?
