On 29th October 2019 we successfully launched our #DontBeTheOneNZ Stroke Prevention Campaign with the help of Auckland University of Technology and the World Stroke Organisation. The Campaign is an all-encompassing, non-ego driven campaign that will work in collaboration with other Health & activity-based organisations to promote the common messages of taking healthy lifestyle choices as a prevention strategy for many diseases and health issues, including but not exclusive to Stroke.

Together we will increase the level of healthy activity for Kiwi’s and reduce the health risks that our population will face if we are not proactive in promoting a healthy lifestyle in a way that can engage our public. Reducing the risk of stroke and similar health issues.
