This afternoon Dame Cindy and Dr Davies hosted the Child Cancer Foundation at Government House Auckland to honour new Life Member Dean Bradley, and Star Tamariki Esme Palmer and Addison Blair. Dean Bradley has been involved in the Child Cancer Foundation for 17 years. He is a current board member and formerly chair of the Wellington branch. Esme and Addison were recognised for being stars facing their own journey with childhood cancer. Each year around 150 families are faced with a childhood cancer diagnosis. For 45 years, the Child Cancer Foundation has been supporting these families in five main areas - social connection, emotional wellbeing, practical support, building resilience and moving forward.
