Power up your health 💪

Did you know you can reduce your risk of bladder cancer by up to 15% just by moving more?

Small changes make a big difference:
✔ Take the stairs
✔ Walk at lunchtime
✔ Park a little further away

You don’t need to run marathons, just get moving.

We are so excited to share that the wonderful, talented Ria Vandervis is competing on Celebrity Treasure Island, playing to raise valuable funds for Cancer Research Trust New Zealand! Ria shared why:

"I'm supporting the New Zealand Cancer Research Trust, the only organisation in New Zealand that is a charity that raises funds for all sorts of cancer research. I feel like in a time where AI and technology is advancing so rapidly, it's a really exciting time for that sector. But all around the world, you know, people seem to be cutting funding for it, so every dollar counts."

Ria, we couldn't agree more!

Make sure to tune in and help us cheer Ria on!
Celebrity Treasure Island premieres Monday 27 April at 7:30pm on TVNZ 2 and TVNZ+ and continues Tuesday and Wednesday each week.

Catherine ran the Rome Marathon for the people she loves who have been affected by cancer. She set a goal to raise $10,000 for cancer research.

She raised more than $37,000!

To everyone who donated, shared, and cheered her on: you're part of this too. Amazing things happen when a community comes together.

Catherine, we are so proud of you. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. 🩵
