We have a special edition of Wānaka Well tomorrow, with a little Dunk it for Plunket event! There will be lots of Arnott's biscuits for dunking into your warm drinks and a raffle, as well as the usual lactation consultant, peer supporters, and good chat.

Dunk it for Plunket is a fundraiser that goes straight back into our community - which helps to provide for things like keeping the rooms warm, having a place to change nappies at events, and offering first aid classes for free.

See you Tuesday, 22 September from 10am-12pm!
