💗 Cancer touches us all.

If you've experienced cancer, you'll know that the everyday impacts can be just as challenging as the diagnosis itself.

That's why this Still Me September, we're inviting our community to come together and help ensure no one faces cancer alone.

It doesn't need to be big or complicated. Host a cuppa with friends, organise a small raffle, hold a bake sale, or simply bring people together for a good cause.

Every dollar raised helps provide free practical support, trusted information, education and connection for people navigating the everyday impacts of cancer.

Because no one understands the importance of support better than someone who has needed it themselves.

Every act of kindness, every hand extended in welcome, every friendship built on trust strengthens the communities around us.

In Inner Wheel we believe that when women connect with purpose they create meaningful impact and become part of a global community that reaches far beyond borders.

This International Day of Friendship, 30 July, let's celebrate the connections that bring us together, inspire us to act, and remind us that we are never alone.

💙 Connection. Impact. Global Community.

Stalking became a crime in NZ 2 months ago. These resources are so helpful for anyone.

Introducing Recognise, Respond, Support: Practical workplace responses to stalking!

Stalking became a crime in New Zealand two months ago, and today we’re launching a guide in partnership with Shine and Human Resources New Zealand to equip workplaces with practical guidance and tools to support employees experiencing stalking 📖

Work can be a place of safety, but it can also be used by perpetrators to contact, monitor, follow and approach victim-survivors.

Respond, Recognise, Support helps employers prepare for and respond when staff experience stalking, inside or outside work. The guide takes an employee-led approach.

In the guide you'll find
💜 Advice for employers on how to support employees experiencing stalking
💜 Signs of what employees might be feeling
💜 Conversation prompts
💜 Legal advice
💜 Contact details for support agencies

Download, read and share the guide with your networks today! https://www.women.govt.nz/womens-safety/stalking-and-its-impact-women/practical-workplace-responses-stalking

Time to get planning for action...

Matariki is a time to reflect, say thanks, and set intentions for the year ahead — something Inner Wheel members have done in their own way for 100 years.

For us, that means: real friendships that support each other, hands-on service in our communities, and connections with women around the world.

What's one thing you want your club to do more of this year?

As part of Shine’s annual Light It Orange Appeal, this powerful display represents hope for those experiencing family violence and signals the start of a month dedicated to fundraising and awareness.

In Aotearoa, 55% of women experience family violence in their lifetime, a reminder of just how important this work is.

This July, you can help us make a difference. 𝗗𝗼𝗻𝗮𝘁𝗲, 𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗿𝗮𝗶𝘀𝗲, 𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝘀𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗱; every action matters.

Funds raised support critical frontline services, including:
🧡 Family violence advocates
🧡 KIDshine for children
🧡 Behaviour change programmes
🧡 Emergency safe housing

Together, we can support women, children and families in crisis.
