President’s report
It is hard to believe another
year has rolled around and I
am once again introducing
this year’s annual report for
the Waikato/Bay of Plenty
Division of the Cancer Society.
In 2013 and with 50 years
of service behind us, the
Division set about making
changes to the inner workings
of our organisation. With
44 paid staff and over 600
volunteers operating out of
regional offices in Hamilton,
Tauranga, Rotorua and the
Lodge, we needed to create a
new organisational structure
that would allow for the
recruitment of new roles and
better position ourselves for
the future.
Our new structure went live on
the 1st of July and new roles were
recruited and appointed as the months
progressed. I would like to thank
our existing staff for their patience
throughout the transition and welcome
the four new staff members we have
gained as a result of these changes.
I would also like to thank our Chief
Executive, Judy Gould, who lead this
process from the front and continues
to take our organisation forward so
that we can better support those in our
district with cancer.
Recruitment was also a theme in our
executive committee this year with
three new appointments. Nell Dawson
and Sally Powdrell are both from
Tauranga and bring a combination of
business and health experience to the
committee. Nell Dawson originally
trained as a physiotherapist but has also
been involved in health management.
Prior to joining Aongatete Coolstores
Ltd, she was the manager of Matua
Lifecare in Tauranga. Sally Powdrell is a
partner and leader of the commercial
team at law firm, Cooney Lees Morgan,
where she advises on all aspects
of commercial and property law.
Denise Irvine, Telehealth Facilitator
at Waikato DHB, joined the executive
in addition to her role on the medical
advisory committee. My thanks go to
the remaining committee members
who continue to volunteer their time
and expertise to support the Society.
Special thanks go to Richard Seabrook
(Cambridge) and Neil Pettersen
(Tauranga) for their role as deputy
chairs.
Over the past year, there have been
considerable developments to the
cancer services that are offered in
the Bay of Plenty. In response to the
growing need for a new radiotherapy
facility in Tauranga, urologists Mark
Fraundorfer and Peter Gilling partnered
with the Bay of Plenty District Health
Board to create the Kathleen Kilgour
Centre (KKC). The KKC is located next to
the medical oncology unit at Tauranga
Hospital and will offer radiotherapy
services to people in the wider Bay of
Plenty. The KKC is on track to open in
October 2014 and will inevitably mean
a loss in the number of bed nights
required at our Lodge in Hamilton as
people from the Bay of Plenty region
remain in Tauranga for treatment.
Losing clients from the Bay of Plenty
does not mean our Lodge will be under
utilised in 2014. Over the past financial
year we have seen an increase in the
number of referrals for accommodation
at the Lodge and have at times
struggled to accommodate everyone.
As a result of this some clients have
been required to stay in nearby motels.
This has always been the last option
for us as we ensure that those who
contributed towards the Lodge have
every opportunity to stay there in
their time of need. Losing some of our
clients from the Bay of Plenty will help
us solve this problem. In addition, we
took on clients from Tairawhiti District
Health Board (TDHB) in July and have
seen increasing numbers of clients
from this area as well. The Tairawhiti
clients are accommodated in the units
at the Lodge which differ from the
other rooms as they are able to be
accessed seven days a week. The units
have worked well for Tairawhiti clients
with the long trip home each weekend
unfeasible and we look forward to
continuing this relationship with TDHB
in the new financial year.
The impact of the KKC will not only
be felt at the Lodge in Hamilton. We
are also expecting an increase in the
demand for our services in Tauranga.
For this reason and because we had
already outgrown our premises on 14th
Avenue in Tauranga, we purchased a new
building at 111 Cameron Road in July.
This building will require a renovation
to make it suitable as our new base
in Tauranga and once complete we
will have room for existing and future
staff members, support groups and
volunteers to assist with various activities.
Our aim is to create a new cancer hub
for people who need support in the Bay

of Plenty and see this as a key area of
growth for our division in the future.
Over the past year, I have continued my
role as Divisional representative on the
Cancer Society of New Zealand Board
ensuring the operations of the Waikato/
Bay of Plenty Division are in line with
our national strategic direction.
I would like to end this report by
thanking our donors, sponsors,
volunteers, organisations who work
alongside us and those who utilise our
services. I would also like to again thank
our CE Judy Gould and her wonderful
staff for the effort that they put into
assisting those with cancer. With all of
us working together, there is hope.

annual report 2014
Chief executive’s report
The last year has been a
challenging yet progressive
time for the Waikato/Bay of
Plenty Division of the Cancer
Society. We began the year by
reviewing our organisational
structure and re-positioning
a number of functions and
roles so that we could better
position ourselves for future
growth. Due to the numbers
of new cancer diagnoses in
our region increasing, it is
vital that our organisation
is structured in a way that
allows us to support as many
people as possible. As a result
of our review, we gained seven
new roles, four of which we
were able to fill with external
candidates and our team has
now grown to a total of 44
roles. It has been a pleasure
to see the team grow over the
last year and I look forward to
continuing our work in 2014.
Preparing for growth was also high
on the agenda in Tauranga with the
purchase of 111 Cameron Road for new
office space. We hope to complete a
short renovation before moving into
the building later this year. Our existing
premises at 98 Fourteenth Avenue has
been sold and the funds redirected
towards the purchase of the Cameron
Road property.
Our support services team underwent
a rebrand over the last year and they
are now aptly known as the ‘community
services’ team, which includes the
liaison nurse service, therapeutic
massage and exercise rehabilitation
programmes. The new ‘community
services’ title better summarises
our existing services and the new
initiatives that we hope to develop
over the coming year. Over the last
year, the team has continued to expand
our rehabilitative exercise offerings,
running numerous men’s programmes,
one - on-one sessions and a new
programme that combines exercise
and education for young women with
breast cancer. There is a growing body
of evidence that suggests exercise plays
a crucial role in cancer rehabilitation
and we will continue to explore this
area in the coming year. At the end
of this financial year we have a fully
resourced team who are available to
provide support to any one with any
cancer in all of our communities.
Our commitment to use $300,000 for
a SunSmart grant scheme has enabled
us to make considerable inroads
towards our goal of having 80% of
primary schools in our region SunSmart
accredited by 2016. All primary schools
in the region were able to apply for
a funding grant to assist them in
purchasing the sun protection resource
they needed the most, including
SunSmart sunhats, shade trees, pop-up
shade marquees, permanent shade
structures or upgrades to existing
shade in school grounds. Eighty-seven
schools received a grant from the
SunSmart scheme and the full report
can be seen in the health promotion
section of this publication.
The health promotion team completed
another successful Undercover Cody
summer road show in November which
travelled to 150 early childhood centres,
kindergartens and kohanga reo across
the region receiving wonderful reviews.
They then spent a further two weeks
travelling around the Coromandel and
Bay of Plenty running Undercover Cody
beach promotions over the Christmas/
New Year period.
Now, with a men’s heath promoter on
board, the team will develop a new
work stream that will address why the
health outcomes for men are poorer
than for women and look at what we
can do to improve these statistics.
As the Cancer Society grows, so too
does our need for volunteers. We have
been honoured to see that there is no
shortage of people willing to step in
and support new areas of our business.
Because of this we have decided to
include a new ‘volunteering’ section
in this report which illustrates the
importance of volunteering to our
organisation and how varied our
volunteer roles have become.
We continued to receive wonderful
feedback from the guests who stayed
at the Cancer Society’s Lions Lodge,
including those from Tairawhiti DHB
who took up accommodation in
the units in July. After three years of
providing accommodation for people
from Waikato, Bay of Plenty, Lakes and
now Tairawhiti DHB, our contract comes
up for renewal with all parties this year.
We look forward to continuing our
successful working relationship with
these groups.
We were incredibly lucky to receive
support from so many people over
Daffodil Day and raised an impressive
$657,000 from the campaign as a
result. Relay For Life was again held in
Hamilton while the regional Relay For
Life was held in Rotorua to ensure that
people around our region could share

in this event. Just over $240,000 was
raised from both Relays. Thank you
to everyone who took part in either
Daffodil Day or Relay For Life over
the past year or donated through our
appeals, your support is invaluable to
us. Thanks must also, once again, go to
our wonderful sponsors who enable us
to make it happen, but in particular to
ANZ and Fairview Ford who have given
so much to the Cancer Society over the
years and continue to do so.
We have donated over $500,000 in
the past year towards cancer research
both nationally and on a local level.
Local support includes the $32,000 we
have donated to the Waikato Breast
Cancer Trust and $14,000 to the Waikato
Medical Research Foundation (WMRF).
We have also committed to a two year
rolling grant of up to $30,000 to the
WMRF to be used for any cancer related
research proposal. We continue to fund
Dr Michael Jameson and his team to
the value of $86,000 as they develop
research focused on benefiting cancer
patients in this region.
organisation of which I am truly
thankful for.
I couldn’t end this report without
thanking Murray Loewenthal for
all the time and energy he has put
into not only our Division, but the
National Board of the Cancer Society
of New Zealand. Murray and the other
members of our divisional executive
committee provide wonderful
leadership and direction for our
Judy Gould
Lastly, thank you again to our donors
and supporters, volunteers, clients and
staff. Together, we will provide hope.

annual report 2014
The liaison nurses have specialised
knowledge and skills in supporting
people with cancer in the community.
They offer a range of support options
including home based support,
information about cancer and
treatment options, assessment and
support to manage the side effects
of cancer treatment, referrals to other
cancer society services and links with
other health care professionals and
community services as needed.
The liaison nurses regularly review
the way they offer support and over
the past year have made a number of
changes to extend the value of the
service. There has been a shift from
giving emergency financial grants
for bill payments or food vouchers to
items that provide more sustainable
support such as counselling grants for
clients and/or their careers. As a result,
the number of referrals for counselling
has doubled over the past year as
the service gains momentum and
evidence of the need for emotional and
psychological support during a cancer
journey grows.
There has also been a shift in the way
we support our clients staying at the
Lodge. The Hamilton based liaison
nurses have for some time visited the
Lodge every Wednesday to run sessions
with the guests. The past year has
seen the Hamilton nurses step back
to enable the Tauranga and Rotorua
based nurses to share the role, visiting
and forming relationships with guests
at the Lodge so when they return
home following their treatment they
are already connected to our service.
This has enabled us to provide a more
consistent level of support for our
clients across the region.
Although there are direct referral
pathways through health professionals
to the liaison nurses, we are committed
to promoting the service as much as
possible. The team have worked hard
over the past year to increase their
networking, liaising with relevant
district health boards and local medical
contacts to lift the profile of the liaison
nurses role in the community. This has
resulted in a positive increase in the
number of referrals over the past few
months.
Over the past year, the programme
coordinator role which focuses on
exercise rehabilitation has gone from
strength to strength. A number of
different exercise programme options
were offered with the intention of
motivating individuals towards an
active lifestyle, assisting patients in
decreasing their cancer fatigue and
pain, building up strength, as well as
providing exercises that individuals can
do in their own homes.
Nine hundred and fifty-two
individualised, one-on-one exercise
sessions were held at the Lodge with
clients from across the division. We
received a huge amount of positive
feedback on the benefits the exercise
sessions had made to our clients’
recovery including increased levels of
strength and fitness and greater levels
of confidence.
With the one-on-one sessions and
exercise for men classes proving to
be popular, a young women’s breast
cancer exercise group was piloted in
January this year with pleasing results.
As a result of this group, the women
are now meeting regularly and have
formed their own walking group. This
year we will continue our focus on
exercise with current plans to trial a
yoga class in Rotorua.
Year on year we have seen increases
in the number of massages delivered
across the region. It was no different
at the Lodge and in Tauranga this year
where numbers of massages exceeded
1500, but there was a decrease in
the numbers of massages offered
in Rotorua and Taupo. Due to a few
resignations, community service figures
from the Rotorua, Whakatane, Tokoroa
and Taupo areas have slipped a little
and every effort will be made in the
coming year to increase the numbers
utilising our services in these areas.

This 16% increase, from 44% to 60%, of
accredited schools keeps the division
on track to achieving its strategic goal of
reaching 80% of schools accredited by
2016. With the majority of the schools
in our region now SunSmart accredited
this sets a precedent for other schools to
become accredited too and makes us the
leading division for accredited schools,
nationally.
The next few months will be integral to
the success of the grant scheme as the
resources are delivered to schools and
projects come to fruition.

$300,000 budget for the SunSmart
grants scheme
In line with the division’s strategic goal to
accredit 80% of schools to the SunSmart
Schools Accreditation Programme (SSAP)
by 2016, schools needed to become
accredited in order to be eligible for a
grant. Also, to help the funding go to
as many schools as possible, they were
encouraged to fundraise towards the
cost of the sun protection resource
themselves.
63 schools newly accredited to the
SSAP - a 16% increase in total accredited
schools
By the end of the financial year, almost
the full amount of the Grant Scheme’s
$300,000 budget had been allocated
to 87 schools throughout our region.
Many of the resources have now been
delivered and all of the other projects are
underway.

Of the 87 schools who were allocated a
grant, 42 schools were already accredited
(33 of which became re-accredited)
and 45 schools were newly accredited.
However a total increase of 63 newly
accredited schools can be observed
as many of the other schools who
33 schools became re-accredited to
the SSAP
87 schools, with almost 18,000
students, allocated $290,306 worth of

As the SunSmart grant scheme was only
open to primary schools we decided
to run an Undercover Cody roadshow
for children under five in November.
Undercover Cody’s ‘picnic at the beach’
summer roadshow visited 150 early
childhood centres, kindergartens and
kohanga reo and was delivered by two
teams of SunSmart trained ambassadors.
We received some wonderful feedback
following the show including;
“
> “Friendly, bilingually awesome, patient,
related well to tamariki, enthusiastic and
efficient. Ka pai!”
> “The balance was just right and
certainly got the slip, slip, slap and wrap
message across to our children in a very
enjoyable and memorable way.”
> “The narrator was really enthusiastic
and delivered at the children’s level
including their contributions. The children
are still requesting the SunSmart song
and it was great to have the narrator
model the actions.”
> “The roadshow was a fun and
interactive way for children to learn. We
have a photo up of the road show and
the characters and children frequently go
and talk about what they learned.”
> “The show was excellent and the
ambassadors were very friendly and
engaging with our tamariki. Our centre
appreciated having a visit from Cody who
came a long way to visit our small centre
in Opotiki and we thank the Cancer
Society for this initiative. SunSmart is a
very important kaupapa.”
“
It was another busy and
successful year for the Health
Promotion team. In September,
we announced the SunSmart
grant scheme to all schools in
the region. The grant scheme
gave schools the opportunity
to apply for funding to assist
in purchasing sun protection
resources. Schools could apply
for the sun protection resource
that they needed the most
including sunhats, portable or
permanent shade structures
or funding for an independent
project that helped them utilise
their existing shade better.
As a result of the show, 82% of early
childhood centres advised that they
had completed further SunSmart
education with their children following
our visit.
annual report 2014
Following a successful roadshow
the team headed to the beaches at
the end of 2013. Undercover Cody
beach promotions were run from
27th December to the 6th of January
where interactions were had with 1,000
children who used over 10 litres of free
sunscreen. Over the 11 days we visited
the Keltic Fair, Tairua School Wine and
Food Festival, Whangamata Fair, Miss
Whangamata, Matarangi Thundercats
Racing, Pauanui Markets, Volleyball
Grandslam and well as Hahei, Mercury
Bay, Whangamata, Pauanui and Tairua
beaches.
We are increasingly working with
councils to help them develop
effective policies in the areas of
smokefree, alcohol and shade. We
have encouraged councils to develop
smokefree policies and have had
success with Hamilton City, Rotorua
and Opotiki coming on board in the
last year. Currently only four of the 16
councils in our region have smokefree
policies so this will remain a high
priority for the division.
We wrote submissions to thirteen
councils in our division encouraging
stricter local alcohol policies in an effort
to reduce the damage done by alcohol
in our communities. As a result of our
submissions we were invited to speak
at eleven council hearings. Research
continues into the link between alcohol
consumption and cancer and this is
likely to influence our work in health
promotion in years to come.
In addition we sent shade submissions
to Hamilton, Taupo and Tauranga
councils advocating for SunSmart
policies that cover shade in play areas
and parks as well as consideration for
outdoor council workers and council
run events.
Addressing why health outcomes for
men are poorer than for women is a
priority. The ever popular ‘colossal
colon’ was again a success at Fieldays
and at a work place health event held at
Fonterra. One hundred and eighty-two
evaluations were collected at Fieldays
and visitor numbers were between 400
and 600 each day. Surveys showed that
56% of men said they would visit their
doctor following the promotion and
79% of men agreed that the site had
made them ‘think more about their
health’. As a result of the organisational
restructure, we gained a full time men’s
health promoter role which we have
since appointed. This role will work on
existing men’s health initiatives while
further developing this work stream for
the Cancer Society.

Volunteering report
As the demand on our services
has grown so too has our
need for volunteers and as a
result a large emphasis was
placed on better structuring
our volunteer function so that
the service could grow and
diversify this year.
A new ‘volunteer development
manager’ role was created and
appointed in October 2013 to lead and
effectively manage this process for the
division. As a result of this appointment
and in only a short amount of time, we
have already seen fantastic changes
happening in the volunteering space.
In addition to the volunteer
development manager role, our
existing part-time volunteer driving
coordinator role, which is based in
the oncology department at Waikato
Hospital, was increased to full-time
hours to allow enough time to facilitate
the requirements of the volunteer
service.
The volunteer team of three is
rounded out with our lodge volunteer
coordinator who is employed 16 hours
a week to support existing volunteers
and expand volunteer roles at the
Cancer Society’s Lions Lodge.
The number of people volunteering
for the Waikato Bay of Plenty Cancer
Society now exceeds 600 and they fill a
variety of roles supporting each of the
services we offer across the region.
Our volunteer driving service enables
our clients to get to and from their
medical appointments with ease.
Cancer treatment can be a long process
with people often having to travel to
hospital every day for weeks on end
to receive treatment. As these people
are unable to drive and their support
people may also be maintaining
the home, work and other family
commitments, this can place a huge
amount of strain on families.
Our volunteer driving service will
pick people up from their home
and return them following their
treatment, free of charge. During
this past year, volunteer drivers
have taken patients to
2415
appointments across the
Waikato Bay of Plenty region.
The Cancer Society’s Lions Lodge
is well supported by over
30
volunteers
who assist in a variety of ways to
create that special ‘home away
from home’ environment for the
guests while they are away from
their families.
The oncology department reception at
Waikato Hospital has a group of Cancer
Society volunteers who welcome
patients, make tea and coffee or chat
to them while they are waiting for their
treatment. The contribution of these
volunteers is regularly complimented
and valued by many undergoing
treatment as they help to soften what
can be a stressful time – particularly
when a patient is new to their
treatment regime.
We have a large number of volunteer
coordinators and groups in the wider
Waikato Bay of Plenty area who provide
local support to people who receive
a cancer diagnosis. These groups of
volunteers will assist with transport,
meals, companionship and often
respond to a number of other requests
for assistance. We are currently
recruiting new volunteers to assist with
reinvigorating the volunteer pool in
some of those areas as volunteers retire
after many years of service.
Working with these volunteers over
the past few months has identified
that we need to better link rural
volunteers with our liaison nurses so
that appropriate referrals are made
for people who need further support.
This year we will run a pilot project in
the Morrinsville area that will involve
a referral system which will enable the
volunteer and liaison nurse to quickly
identify areas of need for our clients
and families in rural areas.
Events are always a popular option for
volunteering and over 100 volunteers
supported Daffodil Day and Relay For
Life events in Hamilton and Rotorua
this year.
When treatment for Tairawhiti DHB
patients was moved from Palmerston
North to Waikato in July last year we
offered the self catering units at the
Lodge for accommodation. As these
guests stay seven nights a week
rather than five, we set up a brand
new volunteer service to support
them during their stay. This support
involved assigning a volunteer to each
unit and offering their services to take
the guests shopping, to the Hamilton
gardens or lake for a walk or satisfying
other one off requirements the guests
may have.
As a number of our volunteers are food
enthusiasts, we have set up a group
of hospitality volunteers who donate
their time to cater for programmes like
Living Well. They have been doing an
excellent job of providing beautiful

> Jenny Edwards and Beth Rintoul have completed a combined 40 years of service to the Cancer Society
food for our clients while saving the
organisation considerable cost.
We have established a new group
of ‘flexi volunteers’ who respond to
requests for one off tasks. So far these
tasks have included administration,
delivering items, telephoning, flower
arranging and labelling bags of
popcorn for our Fieldays promotion.
The Cancer Society is committed to
raising the professionalism of our
volunteer service and as such we have
introduced a number of new resources
and processes for our volunteers as well
as offered extra orientation days and
training for existing volunteers. More
regular contact with volunteers will
happen through an ‘e newsletter’ made
possible by the inclusion of more up
to date volunteer information we have
been entering on our database since
late 2013. As a result of this we are
planning on introducing a volunteer
recognition programme in 2015.
> Special mention must be made of
two of our wonderful volunteers who
between them have given 40 years of
dedicated service to the Society Jenny
Edwards has been volunteering for
the Cancer Society in Whitianga
for the past 25 years and has been
responsible for Daffodil Day and all
other areas of community support.
Under Jenny’s watch, the community
in Whitianga has donated over
$20,000 each year to the Daffodil
Day appeal – which has consistantly
been one of the largest amounts
received from our local communities.
Supporting Jenny for the past
fifteen years is Beth Rintoul who has
managed the finances for the group
so that support has been available for
those who need it. The Cancer Society
extends a huge thank you to Jenny
and Beth for all of their hard work
over the years. Your shoes will not be
easily filled.

Fundraising report
When you consider that New
Zealand consistently rates
in the top five of the most
charitable countries in the
world, according to the World
Giving Index, it is not hard
to see how charities like the
Cancer Society are able to rely
on the support and generosity
of their local communities in
order to operate.
In the Waikato/Bay of Plenty Division
of the Cancer Society we take every
opportunity to thank our community
for this support. Over the past year
local communities have donated in
excess of $1 million which we have
used to provide our liaison nurse
service, therapeutic massage, exercise
programmes, run health promotion
programmes in SunSmart, smokefree
and men’s health and fund both local
and national research into the treatment
and prevention of cancer. We could not
provide any of these services without
this support so thank you to everyone
who donated or supported us over the
past year.
The development of our donor
management system has enabled us
to better connect with our donors and
those who offer us support. We are
now sending up to four appeals per
year and our donors are consistently
increasing their donations illustrating
the importance that they place on
the Cancer Society operating in
their community. Over the past year
$277,555 was raised from appeals - a
32% increase on the previous year. Our
appeals show our supporters how their
donations enable us to run our services
and make a positive impact on people’s
lives. Yet the stories we share through
the appeals are only a fraction of the
many stories that we could share each
year. We hope to continue bringing
stories of hope and survival through
appeals and our new fundraising
newsletter ‘With your help’ in the
coming year.
Daffodil Day and Relay For Life events
remain a consistent and valued source
of income for the Cancer Society.
Daffodil Day seems to be consistently
blessed with blue skies so while it was
cold this year, our street collections
didn’t suffer and many gave in support
of our biggest fundraiser. This year’s
event raised $657,052 which was an
excellent result and just over $10k more
than the previous year. Thank you to
ANZ who fundraised on our behalf
through their branches and donated
$182,578 towards our total. Thank
you must also go to the people who
ordered flowers through our pre sale of
fresh daffodils which was up this year,
schools, businesses and everyone who
donated to the campaign in some way
– your support is hugely appreciated by
everyone at the Cancer Society.
Relay For Life events were held in
Hamilton and Rotorua this year with
mixed results. Hamilton had 48 hours
of spectacular weather and nearly 100
teams attended what was to be the final
Relay we held at Ag Research, Ruakura.
It was a fantastic event filled with fun
and laughter, music and entertainment
and a beautiful and moving candlelight
ceremony. As a result $175,503 was
raised from the event.
However, it was a different day at
the Rotorua event. As Cyclone Lusi
unleashed a torrent of wind and
rain across the entire North Island,
we decided to offer a turbo eight
hour event on Saturday 14 March
before everyone and everything was
practically washed away! We would like
to acknowledge those who, despite
the dire conditions, turned up to make
the most of the event. As many of
these people had been fundraising
for months prior it was a shame we
couldn’t complete the entire event.
However, the time and effort they put
into fundraising did not go unnoticed.
Thank you to everyone who tried to
salvage what we could from the wet
Rotorua relay!
As we compete for the donor dollar we
need to be able to offer numerous ways
for donors to provide support. Over
the next few years, we will develop our
online fundraising techniques to make
donating easier for our donors and to
operate our fundraising campaigns
in an even more efficient and cost
effective manner. We will also look to
develop new fundraising events so that
we can continue to raise awareness of
our services and funds to cover their
costs.
Thank you to everyone who has played
a part in the Cancer Society over the
past year. Every dollar you donate goes
towards making a difference in the
lives of people with cancer. On behalf
of our clients and the Waikato/Bay of
Plenty Division of the Cancer Society, we
cannot thank you enough.

Supporting research and cancer professionals
Every year we commit
more funding towards
research, both regionally and
nationally, into the causes and
treatment of cancer.
This year we continued our support
of Dr Michael Jameson, Consultant
Medical Oncologist at Waikato Hospital,
and his team as they develop and
undertake clinical cancer research
including;
Statins to improve effectiveness
of radiation and chemotherapy
> It appears that statins may improve
the effectiveness of radiation and
chemotherapy treatment of rectal cancer
and possibly reduce the side effects. Dr
Jameson has gained the support of the
Australasian Gastrointestinal Cancer
Trials Group for a trial testing this and an
advanced oncology trainee at Waikato
Hospital, Dr Elliot Brenman, will develop
this trial further at the prestigious ACORD
workshop in September 2014.
Ketogenic diet to improve
outcomes for brain tumours
> The prognosis for patients with
glioblastoma, an aggressive form of
brain tumour, is poor even with optimal
surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
A US group showed in laboratory
research that a diet with almost no
carbohydrates greatly improved the
outcomes achieved with radiation for
brain tumours of this sort. The next step
is to evaluate whether patients who
are having treatment for this type of
brain tumour find such a diet tolerable,
enjoyable and acceptable, and how
it affects them and their tumour. The
Waikato Medical Research Foundation
have awarded a grant enabling us to
conduct a trial evaluating this.
Effect of different types of
selenium on breast cancer with
BRCA gene mutations
> Attempts to reduce breast cancer
risk in women who carry a BRCA gene
mutation by using a selenium salt called
selenite have been reported to show that
it actually increased the risk. Part of the
problem may have been that the dose
was too high and also that selenite may
not be the optimal form of selenium to
use in this group. In this project Kirsty
Mayall is exploring whether a different
form of selenium may be better than
selenite in its effects on the mutated
breast cancer cells.
The development phase of clinical
research can take a number of years
before a study is able to commence.
Dr Jameson says the ongoing support
from the Waikato/Bay of Plenty Division
of the Cancer Society has been essential
to enable him to develop successful
cancer research collaborations and
initiatives.
We continued our support of the
Waikato Breast Care Register this year.
This valuable tool for clinicians can
ensure there is effective assessment and
reporting for over 95% of all women
with newly diagnosed breast cancer in
the Waikato.
In total, we contributed over half a
million dollars to research this year,
$386,250 towards the Cancer Society
of New Zealand’s $3 million national
research fund, and a further $132,568,
to cancer research locally.
“I would like to thank the
Waikato/Bay of Plenty
Division of the Cancer
Society for their ongoing
financial support. This has
enabled us to build and
sustain a collaborative team
who conduct high quality
research that is aimed at
making a big difference to
the care and outcomes for
cancer patients. Our mark of
its success is that the number
of people, who entered
clinical trials through
our Cancer Trials Unit at
Waikato Hospital over the
past year, outnumbered
those recruited into all
commercially-sponsored
and collaborative trials put
together.”

Waikato Regional Cancer Centre report
On behalf on the Waikato
Regional Cancer Centre,
I would like to take this
opportunity to thank the
Waikato/Bay of Plenty
Division of the Cancer Society
for the opportunity to report
on our last year’s endeavours.
Similar to last year, our focus
has been on the ongoing
provision of our high quality
service within tight fiscal
constraints. This has provided
us with opportunities to look
at how we can manage and
run our services, ensuring that
patients continue to receive
high quality care.
A cornerstone of our service is
engaging the wider Midlands
community and working in partnership
to streamline and improve the services,
and patient journey, that we provide.
We are engaged, in a collaborative
manner, with the Midlands Cancer
Network, working on national and
regional strategic aims, ensuring that
these are implemented in a sustainable
and sage manner. In the last year,
Tairawhiti District Health Board (TDHB)
has developed closer ties with the
Midlands Cancer Region with Waikato
providing tertiary care for patients
requiring radiotherapy and inpatient
chemotherapy. Many of the patients
from TDHB have enjoyed the use of the
Cancer Society’s Lions lodge and the
feedback from many patients and their
whanau is that this is a really important
service for them while they undergo
treatment away from home.
The main building project at the
Waikato District Health Board is
nearing it’s conclusion with many
changes seen around the hospital.
The Lomas Building, which houses
oncology outpatients, will be the next
consideration. While this project is
only in the very early stages, it is vital
that we identify and plan for our future
requirements, ensuring that we achieve
the best design for our facilities and
services.
Within oncology, we are approximately
15 months into our newly refurbished
oncology/haematology inpatient
ward. This has enabled us to deliver
better care to our patients who require
an inpatient stay in hospital. The
construction of our six bed hepa filtered
unit which helps to filter harmful
pollutants and allergens out of the
air people breathe has reduced our
patient’s risk of developing infections.
Our Chemotherapy Suite upgrade
has also been completed. This has
seen a more aesthetically pleasing
environment for our patients with
more space allowed so that patients
can receive their treatment in comfort.
Without the support of so many people,
these refurbishments would not have
occurred in such a succinct and timely
manner. We would like to acknowledge
and thank all those, including the
Waikato/Bay of Plenty Division of the
Cancer Society, who have contributed
so much to the success of these
projects.
We would especially like to thank our
wonderful Cancer Society volunteers.
Your hard work, commitment, and
dedication to our patients and staff
alike, are truly inspirational and we
are very proud and privileged to be
the benefactors of such a wonderfully
skilled and dedicated group of
volunteers.
On behalf of all the staff and patients
at the Waikato Regional Cancer Centre,
I would like to thank the Waikato/
Bay of Plenty Division of the Cancer
Society for their ongoing support. We
look forward to continuing our close
relationship in the years to come.
Gabby Reynolds
Nurse Manger
Oncology
Our service could not operate as
smoothly and efficiently as it does
without the support, hard work and
dedication of so many people and we
would like to take this opportunity to
thank everyone who has contributed
to the provision of this ongoing care.

and subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective
interest method, less provision for
impairment.
REPORTING ENTITY
Waikato/Bay of Plenty Division
Cancer Society of New Zealand (Inc),
hereinafter referred to as the division,
is a society registered under the
Incorporated Societies Act 1908.
Collectability of trade receivables
is reviewed on an ongoing basis.
Individual debts which are known
to be uncollectible are written off.
A provision for impairment of trade
receivables is established when
there is objective evidence that
the Society will not be able to collect
all amounts due according to the
original terms of the receivables
If, in a subsequent period, the
amount of impairment loss
decreases and the decrease can
be related objectively to an event
occurring after the impairment was
recognised (such as an improvement
in the debtor’s credit rating), the
previously recognised impairment
loss is reversed and the reversal is
recognised in the Statement of
Financial Performance. The financial statements of the division
are a general purpose report which
has been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting
practices.
MEASUREMENT BASE
The accounting principles recognised
as appropriate for the measurement
and reporting of earnings and financial
position on a historical cost basis are
followed by the division.
SPECIFIC ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following specific accounting
policies which materially affect the
measurement of financial performance
and financial position have been
applied:
1. Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents includes
cash in hand, deposits held at call
with banks, other short-term highly
liquid investments with original
maturities of three months or less
that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and which
are subject to an insignificant risk
of changes in value, and bank
overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are
shown within borrowings in current
liabilities on the Statement of
Financial Position.
2. Trade and other Receivables
Trade and other receivables are
recognised initially at fair value
3. Property Plant and Equipment
Fixed Assets are valued at cost price
less accumulated depreciation.
Depreciation of Fixed Assets.
Depreciation has been charged
using the straight line method for
all assets except land which is not
depreciated.
Specific rates used are:
Motor Vehicles
20%
Furniture & Equipment 10% - 20%
Property 3%
Improvements
7.8%
Cancer Society’s Lions Lodge
2% - 20%
4. Financial Assets
The society classifies its investments
in the following categories:
financial assets at fair value
through the Statement of Financial
Performance, loans and receivables,
held to maturity investments and
available-for-sale financial assets.
The classification depends on the
purpose for which the investments
were acquired. Management
determines the classification of its
investments at initial recognition
and re-evaluates this designation
at every reporting date. At balance
date, the society only had financial
assets classified as available-for-sale. Available-for-sale Financial
Assets
Available-for-sale financial assets
are non derivatives that are either
designated in this category or
not classified in any of the other
categories. They are included
in non-current assets unless
management intends to dispose of
the investment within 12 months of
the Statement of Financial Position. The society’s investments in listed
securities are classified as availablefor-sale financial assets.
Purchases and sales of investments
are recognised on trade date – the
date on which the society commits
to purchase or sell the asset.
Investments are initially recognised
at fair value plus transaction costs.
Available-for-sale financial assets
are subsequently carried at fair
value. The fair values of quoted
investments are based on current
bid prices. Unrealised gains and
losses arising from changes in the
fair value of securities classified as
available-for-sale are recognised in
equity.
annual report 2014
5. Trade and Other Payables
These amounts represent unsecured
liabilities for goods and services
provided to the society prior to the
end of the financial year which are
unpaid. Trade and other payables
are recognised initially at fair value
and subsequently measured at
amortised cost using the effective
interest method. As trade and other
payables are usually paid within 30
days, they are carried at face value.
6. Revenue Recognition
Revenue from the sale of goods
is recognised upon the delivery
of goods to customers. Interest
revenue is recognised on a
proportional basis taking into
account the interest rates applicable
to the financial assets. Other
revenue is recognised when the
right to receive the revenue has
been established. All revenue is
stated net of the amount of goods
and services tax (GST).
10.Properties Intended for Sale
Properties intended for sale are
carried at the lower of cost and
net realisable value. Properties
intended for sale which are readily
realisable and intended to be held
for not more than one year are
classified within current assets.
Where the current asset test is not
met, properties intended for sale
are classified as non-current assets.
CHANGES IN ACCOUNTING
POLICIES
There have been no changes in
accounting policies. All policies have
been applied on a basis consistent
with those from previous financial
statements.
7.GST
These financial statements have
been prepared on a GST exclusive
basis except for accounts receivable
and accounts payable.
8. Income Tax
The division has been granted
Charitable Status and is exempt from
income tax by the Inland Revenue
Department.
9. Differential Reporting
The division qualifies for differential
reporting as it is not publicly
accountable and there is no
separation between the owners and
the governing body. The division
has taken advantage of all available
differential reporting exemptions.

Independent auditor’s report
To the Beneficiaries of Waikato / Bay of Plenty Division Cancer Society of New Zealand (Incorporated)
Report on the Financial Statements
We have audited the financial statements of Waikato / Bay of Plenty Division Cancer Society of New Zealand (Incorporated) on
pages 17 to 26, which comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 March 2014, and the statement of financial performance,
and statement of movements in equity for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory information.
The Executive Committee’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
The Executive Committee is responsible for the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting practice in New Zealand and that give a true and fair view of the matters to which they relate, and for such internal
control as the Executive Committee determines is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance
with International Standards on Auditing (New Zealand). Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements
and plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of
the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control
relevant to the entity’s preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view of the matters to which they relate in order
to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and
the reasonableness of accounting estimates, as well as evaluating the presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Other than in our capacity as auditor we have no relationship with, or interests in, Waikato / Bay of Plenty Division Cancer Society
of New Zealand (Incorporated).
Basis for Qualified Opinion
As is common with other organisations of a similar nature, a portion of income is derived from donations and other fundraising
activities. Control over this income prior to being recorded is limited, and there are no practical audit procedures to determine the
effect of this limitation.
Qualified Opinion
In our opinion, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion paragraph, the financial
statements on pages 17 to 26:
• comply with generally accepted accounting practice in New Zealand; and
• give a true and fair view of the financial position of Waikato / Bay of Plenty Division Cancer Society of New Zealand (Incorporated)
as at 31 March 2014 and its financial performance for the year ended on that date.
