Breast Cancer Network Photo celebration

To celebrate the 100th issue of their magazine, Upfront U Kaiora, the Breast Cancer Network (BCN) is organising an event to photograph 100 people affected by breast cancer. The photo will be published in the celebratory 100th edition of the magazine.

BCN would be delighted if you can join them at 10.00am on Saturday November 5th, at The Grandstand, Auckland Domain. They will be gathering, sunshine or rain, as the Grandstand will be used if it is wet.

They have arranged for limited parking at the Cancer Society Auckland, 1 Boyle Cres, Grafton. This is diagonally opposite the main Domain Gates, next to Auckland Hospital.

Please also invite any family, friends or colleagues you would like to join with you for the photo – the more the merrier.

Please contact BCN on admin@bcn.org.nz if you have any queries, or to let them know if you can take part.
