What's New
National Volunteer Week 2013
National Volunteer Week is held from 16 - 22nd June. The theme is “He Tangata! He tangata! He tangata!” which translates as It is people, It is people, It is people. We celebrate the time, passion and experience the Cancer Society volunteers give to reduce the impact and incidence of cancer in their communities.
Smokefree Oceania Conference: Call for Abstracts
The Cancer Society of New Zealand is hosting the biennial Smokefree Oceania conference "A Smokefree Oceania: getting there together" on 23-25 October 2013, at the Rendezvous Hotel, Auckland.
The theme of this conference builds on previous Oceania Conferences, with the aim of participants having the opportunity to present the shared planning, direction, learning and action that is required by all people involved in tobacco control across the Oceania region.
The goal is to have a Smokefree Oceania. The challenge is to get there as soon as possible and for those with knowledge and resources to work with others to reach this goal. The call for abstracts is now open.
The Cancer Information Helpline
The Cancer Information Helpline is a free service, Monday to Friday (9-5pm) with an out-of-hours office answer-phone. Calls are answered by an experienced cancer information nurse and we asked some of our clients to share their experiences of using this service.
