Ministry of Health

From 2017, HPV immunisation will be free for everyone aged 9 to 26. That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.

From 2017, HPV immunisation will be free for everyone aged 9 to 26. That means boys can also be protected against some types of cancer.

HPV-related cancers take a long time to develop, the viruses are mostly transmitted by teenagers and young adults but often aren’t diagnosed until later. That’s why it’s important for children to be immunised when they are young. Around 80% of people will be exposed to HPV at some point in their life. Protecting children before they are exposed to HPV will protect their health in the future.

For more information about HPV immunisation, see www.health.govt.nz/hpv

Are you going to a Summertimes event this year? Great news! Christchurch is trailing compostable packaging for the food and drink available at selected Summertimes events – because no one likes landfill.

If it's brown - it will break down.
Look for the ECO symbol and put it in the green bin.
All other packaging goes into the red bin.

The ECO symbol means "Event Compostable Only" – make sure you bin it at the event, and not at home.
