Our events
Planning is well underway for the next two events on the Trust’s calendar so please save the date.
The second annual dinner is set for Friday, 8th August and while speakers and entertainers haven’t yet been confirmed, this night is guaranteed to be a celebration of excellence. Details will be finalised and announced by the end of the month.
And the Trust’s first Fashion Show is set for the Grange Café on Friday, 10th October. A number of world-class fashion houses will be involved – both women’s and men’s designers – and it’s likely we’ll also have a secondary school element as well. As with the dinner, all details will be announced in short order.
2024 was quite a remarkable year for the Trust. Trustee Prof. Chris Jackson has been elected to the Union for International Cancer Control, just one of 16 board members internationally and the first ever from New Zealand in the union’s 90-year existence. Chris has also been appointed to co-lead the brand-new Cancer National Clinical Network, established to improve access to quality cancer services, designed around the needs of all people in New Zealand.
And the stardom attracted to our events calendar has been extraordinary. Shaun Wallace, the Dark Destroyer from The Chase, was with us in July while Willie Apiata VC enthralled us in November at the Trust's first annual dinner. We have been privileged to host them both.
