Thank you to everyone who attended our annual mid-winter Christmas dinner at the Whangarei yacht club on Sunday! We had a wonderful day with our breast cancer whānau enjoying great food, company, Santa, raffles and more 🥰.

We were also honoured to have Northland Regional Manager Charli Timms from Cancer Society Northland come and speak about the new Lodge and radiation centre in Whangarei, and also our dear sponsor Marge from Albies Den in Maungaturoto. Here are a few photos from the day 🎄

Just a friendly reminder that we need to know if you are coming by Saturday 20 June please, for catering purposes 🎄
