IT’S time to dust off that fascinator, put on your Sunday best and direct your limousine driver to Showgrounds Park . . . the Gisborne Terrier Race Against Time is back. First run in 2006, the popular event raises money to support Gisborne individuals diagnosed with breast cancer. As well as racing and the chance to bet, there will be food and drink, an auction and prizes donated by local businesses. Fancy dress is encouraged. In past years, the day has attracted over 1000 people and raised over $50,000. “Every person diagnosed with breast cancer in the region gets one of our packs full of information, vouchers and books worth about $900,” said co-organiser Derry Stovell. In Tairawhiti, there is on average between 40 and 50 new breast cancer diagnoses each year, meaning the group has to raise around $50,000 to cover the cost of the gift packs. Registered nurse Anne Quinn, who works in the Gisborne Hospital medical day unit treating those with breast cancer, sees how important these packages are. They give people a chance to feel a little pampered during such a trying time, she says. “I know that a lot of our breast cancer patients really love that because it’s quite special. “Like anyone with cancer, they’re going TEAM TERRIER RACING: Showgrounds Park is going to the dogs on Sunday for the ever-popular Terriers Race Against through a very traumatic time.” Time breast cancer fundraiser.
