Ah-Leen Rayner, chief executive of Breast Cancer Foundation NZ, said: “We’re incredibly grateful for our long-term partnership with ghd. With more than $1 million raised through this partnership since 2004, ghd’s generosity has allowed us to make a significant difference for Kiwi women affected by breast cancer."

“Not only have the funds contributed towards ground-breaking research and patient support, this partnership has also helped us to reach more younger women with life-saving breast health messages. Around 400 Kiwi women under the age of 45 are diagnosed with breast cancer every year, so we’re honoured to be working with ghd to spread vital messages about the importance of early detection.”
