Let’s stop avoidable deaths in NZ. Sign this petition for better health care funding for Pharmac
Did you know that NZ’s spend on medicine is the lowest of comparable OECD countries?
Or that in the last 5 years there were 3631 avoidable deaths due to a shortfall in funding for medicines?
How about that if you have advanced breast cancer and live outside of New Zealand you are twice as likely to survive?

Australia funds 103 medicines that NZ does not have access to.
Is it fair that Kiwi women and men face worse health outcomes than patients in other comparable countries?
Maori women with breast cancer are 37% more likely to die than non-Maori.
As a breast cancer survivor I am committed to campaigning for others so they can have the best access to health care they deserve.

Say goodbye to tyre waste
About 40% of the 6.5 million tyres Kiwis use every year are recycled, repurposed, or used as tyre-derived fuel. But the rest end up in landfills, stockpiled or dumped.
The good news is now there’s an easy solution to all that tyre waste. It’s called Tyrewise and is New Zealand’s first national tyre recycling scheme.
Tyrewise ensures that tyres in Aotearoa New Zealand are recycled or repurposed properly, saving millions from going to the landfill.
Find out more about the scheme online.
Wanted: Wok - cast iron please.
Wanted to buy for cash negotiable. For cooking stir fry and fried rice.
