President’s Report

ItwasmorethanfiveyearsagothatwerealisedourLionsLodgein the grounds of the Waikato Hospital was not going to be able to accommodate the increasing number of people in our region being diagnosed with cancer.

And so began the biggest project in our society’s history – the creation of the new Cancer Society’s Lions Lodge on Lake Road, overlooking Lake Rotoroa.

This year has seen the culmination of that project - more than eighteen months of hard work by Cancer Society staff and volunteers, consultants and contractors; made possible by our division’s cash reserves (set aside in anticipation), as well asgenerous donations from the region and tireless fundraising of more than $5 million.

We were grateful to have the Right Honourable Sir Anand Satyanand, Governor-General of New Zealand, officially openthe building in February 2011. Since then, this stunning facility has received countless accolades from the community but most importantlyfromourguests–ofwhichtherewillbemorethan700in the coming year.

Onbehalfofourexecutivecommittee it ismyprivilegetothankall those involved in creating this haven for those in our region affectedbycancer.ThisincludesourchiefexecutiveJudyGouldandhercapablestaff,ourprojectcontrolgroup(picturedoverleaf)and of course our fabulous team of consultants and contractors. Special mention must be made here of Gordon Hassett of Klu’dup,projectadvisorextraordinaire,whogenerouslydonatedallofhistimeandexpertise.

Whilewewereabletofundasignificantportionofthelodgebuildwith our own cash reserves and fundraising, we were once again fortunate to have the support of the Lions Clubs of Districts 202L and 202K. Involved in the lodge since its inception, the Lions have already raised $801,626 of the $1.5 million they have pledged to this project. The international Lions Club president Sid Scruggs III of America attended a special opening of the lodge, with more than 300 Lions Club members in attendance.

Despite much of our focus in the past year being on the lodge, I am delighted that we have continued to gain momentum with each of our main objectives – support services, fundraising, health promotion and supporting research – and that the society remainsinasoundfinancialposition.

There have been a number of changes within our executivecommittee this year. Our sincere thanks to Paul Mountfort, who stepped down from the committee in September 2010 after a commendable 27 years of service (13 years on ourmedical advisory subcommitteeand14 yearsonour executivecommittee). Thanks also to Dr. Amanda Oakley, chair of our medical advisory subcommittee, who resigned during the year after17yearsservingthiscommittee.

One of our longest standing executive members and nationalboard representative, Clive Cleland, was elected president of the Cancer Society of New Zealand – our sincerest congratulations to Clive on this honour. Murray Loewenthal will now take Clive’s position as our representative on the national board.

This is my last report as president of the Waikato/Bay of Plenty division of the Cancer Society. It has been my great privilege to serve in this role during the past nine and a half years. I will be steppingdowninSeptemberthisyearandIamconfidentthatthedivision will continue to prosper in the years to come.

Myheartfeltthankstomyfellowexecutivecommitteemembers,ourchiefexecutiveandall thestaffateachofourfive locations– I have thoroughly enjoyed working with such a talented and dedicated team.

And finally, to our volunteers, sponsors and the thousands ofindividuals who support us each year, thank you for enabling us to continue to reduce the impact of cancer within your community. With your help, there really is hope...

Jan Wright

ChiefExecutive’sReport

The past year has been a momentous one for the Cancer Society, with the 20th anniversary celebration of Daffodil Day and the completionofthemostsignificantprojectinourdivision’shistory- the new Cancer Society’s Lions Lodge.

Whiletheopeningofthenewlodgewasanexcitingandsignificantoccasion for us, it occurred just days after the devastating earthquake in Christchurch. At that time our heartfelt thoughts and prayers were with the residents of Christchurch, including our colleagues and their families, and they continue to be so. Having cancer is stressful and upsetting at the best of times, let alone during a major natural disaster. However, despite two damaged buildings cordoned off in the CBD, our Canterbury division continue to support those with cancer during this crisis. Our commendationstochiefexecutiveLizChestermanandherteam.

The earthquakes in Christchurch served as harsh reminders of the fragility of life; and the resilience of the Canterbury people reminded us of the tenacity of the human spirit. The same is equally true of those living with cancer and it is our privilege to continue to serve them in our region.

Thisyear,themosttangibleexampleofthatservicehascomeinthe form of our new, fully-equipped accommodation facility. We wereveryfortunatetohaveanexperiencedandpassionateteamof people guiding this project so that we made the best use of our generously donated funds to build the very best facility. My specialthankstoexecutivemembersMurrayLoewenthal,RichardSeabrook and Clive Cleland and to our RDT Pacific projectmanager Shatha Al-Sudani for ensuring the success of this build.

As well as the new lodge, each of our support services - from frozen meals to support groups to in-home visits from liaisonnurses – has continued to grow in popularity and I am pleased to say thatwe havebeen able to expand tomeet the growingneed for these throughout the region. We have also continued to provide information and education to individuals, groups, organisations and schools to enable the public to help reduce their risk of cancer. All of this has been funded through our annual fundraising activities and the continuing generosity of the public. Of course we haven’t been alone in serving those with cancer in our communities. Part of our success lies in our ability to join forces with other organisations with similar goals – including the District Health Boards in our region, the Midland Cancer Network, National Heart Foundation, Lions Clubs, Look Good Feel Better and many more. My thanks to all these organisations for working alongsideusinthefightagainstcancer.

And we certainly could not achieve anything without our team of 32 dedicated staff, 400 willing volunteers and the tens of thousands of people who donate to us each year. A huge thanks to each of you and we look forward to working with you again nextyear.

Judy Gould

More than200 invitedguestscelebrated theofficialopeningofour new accommodation facility on February 26th 2011. We were privileged to have the Governor-General of New Zealand officiate.SirAnandSatyanand,whocommentedthatthebuildingwas ‘splendid’, spoke about the considerable increase in the incidence of cancer over the last decade and the importance ofservicessuchasthe lodge inrelievingfinancialand logisticalpressure of those undergoing treatment.

“The new Cancer Society‘s Lions Lodge reflects the strength of the Waikato/Bay ofPlenty community in many ways...

...What ismostheartening is thesignificantcontribution of volunteers to the operation of thelodge.Itisyetanotherexampleofhowthespirit of volunteering is literally “the glue” that holds our society together.”

Three home-cooked meals as well as morning and afternoon tea are served in the sunny dining area each day. And when it’s time to head to treatment, our mini-van runs regularly to and from the hospital to drop people off and collect them after treatment. The lodge also hosts Look Good, Feel Better, volunteer and staff training sessions, health promotion meetings and events, support groups and information seminars.

Cancer Society’s Lions Lodge Our new ‘home-away-from-home’ for those undergoing treatment

The building is wonderful and the staff must be hand-picked as they could not have been better.

I arrived as a ‘scared stranger’ and left feeling part of the family.

We considered it a privilege to have the opportunity to stay in this facility while going through a distressing time in our lives.

Thank goodness someone had the insight for such a place!It really made a difficult time more bearable by having this beautiful place to stay.

Everything about the lodge was first class. I appreciate the amount of thought that has gone into making it such a wonderful place.

We all laughed and enjoyed our happy hour and this was most therapeutic. I can assure you it was a unique experience for which we all have to say many, many thanks.

Support ServicesSupporting people affected by cancer in the community

The uptake of our wide range of support services was greater than ever before this year, signalling an increased awareness of our services, as well as our enhanced ability to meet the demands of those affected by cancer in our region.

It is somewhat inevitable that certain demographics within our regionmay find it harder to access our services for eithergeographical or social reasons. As a result, we continued to spend considerable time and effort to ensure our services reached further than ever before to help those in need.

This year, these efforts included appointing an additional liaison nurse to support those living in Kawerau, Te Kuiti, Taumarunui and Huntly; bringing our total number of liaison nurses throughout the region to seven. We also created a number of support groups innew locations,presented to variousMaori andPacific Islandgroupsandpiloteda six-weekexerciseprogrammespecificallydesigned for men to help them manage cancer-related fatigue. One of our Tauranga-based liaison nurses Colleen Kendrick launched the hugely popular pilot as part of a research project towards her master’s degree.

In 2010/2011 we spent a total of $651,789 funding the following support services:

Health Promotion and EducationRaising awareness to help people reduce the risk of cancer

We trialed a new summer promotion campaign this year in partnership with the New Zealand Racing Board’s Summer Festival. The Interislander Summer Festival, designed to provide the ultimate family holiday experience, attracts more than100,000 people to 34 events around the country. Our SunSmart ambassadors visited all the festival events in our region, handing out free sunscreen, information and Undercover Cody goody bags to families. They also visited summer hotspots on the Coromandel and at Mount Maunganui, as well as events such as the Tairua Wine and Food Festival.

Nearly 50% of schools within our region have now been accredited and are under-going three-yearly reviews thanks to our Sunsmart schools accreditation programme. Recent reports done by the social and behavioural unit at Otago University show that we have the highest adherence to the criteria of any division of the Cancer Society of New Zealand. One of the rewards for schools who achieve accreditation is a visit from Undercover Cody, who continues to be popular with both teachers and children. During the year, we also received numerous orders from schools and other Cancer Society divisions for Undercover Cody resources, whichincludebooks,stickers,UVindexcardsandmore.

With more than 120,000 visitors over four days, the 42nd annual Fieldays provided us with a fantastic opportunity to raise awareness of men’s health issues. Our ‘what a bummer’ campaign certainly got the attention of the crowds, with an interactive prostate model, DVD, pull-up displays, male and femaleBodyworksquizzes,andbrochures togetmen thinkingmore about their health. We were fortunate to receive a grant

from the Movember fundraiser again this year, which helped purchase these resources.

Our health promotions manager Melanie Desmarais worked with counterpartsthroughoutthecountrylobbyingforzerovisibilityofcigarettes and smoking-related products in stores and on vending machines. Melanie was interviewed on Central and Rotorua TV on this issue. We provided a submission in support of The Smoke-free Environments (Controls and Enforcement) Amendment Bill2010,whichpasseditsfirstreadingon10December2010.TheBill, which received overwhelming support by all parties, is hoped to be passed later in 2011.

We were also sponsors of a project run by Toi Te Ora Public Health Service, calling for Smokefree homes for all, and we continue to lobby for Smokefree parks in Hamilton. To support World Smokefree Day we worked with the National Heart Foundation to organise Smokefree displays in doctors’ surgeries throughout Hamilton.

Relay for Life 2010 provided us with a new opportunity to collaborate with other health promotion organisations. This year we launched the inaugural ‘Healthy Island’ – a partnership with 12 community organisations including The National Heart Foundation, Sport Waikato, NZ Blood, Cervical Screening, Te Kohao and TeRapakau Trust, aswell as Ka’ute Pasifika. Thecoconut and palm tree-adorned island offered free health tests (includingblood testspart-sponsoredbyWaikatoOccupationalHealth), fruit and nuts (sponsored by Healthy Eating, HealthyAction),HealthyFoodGuidemagazines,andactivitiesincludingT’ai Chi and Zumba.



Fundraising With your help, there is hope ...

With no direct government funding, we continue to rely on the generosity of our community to fund our activities. Despite a continuingly challenging economic climate and significantcompetition for donor dollars (with other more salient causessuch as the Canterbury earthquakes), our donors continued to support us well.

During the year, more than $1,098,000 was donated by people throughout the Waikato/Bay of Plenty regions via our three annual postal appeals, Daffodil Day and Relay for Life event. We also received a significant amount via bequests this year ($594,787compared to $520,009 in 09/10).

All of the money raised throughout the year stays within our region and is used to help local people get support, education and information, as well as funding regional and national cancer research.

This year marked the 20th anniversary of our national fundraising campaign – Daffodil Day. This hugely successful event is now New Zealand’s longest running national appeal day. Not only that, the National Bank has sponsored Daffodil Day since its inception in 1990, making it the longest cause-related sponsorship of its kind in the country.

Our division was proud to spearhead a nationwide commemorative photographic book to celebrate this milestone. The book followed 21 volunteers, National Bank staff and schools from across the country as they went about their Daffodil Day activities in 2009, illustrated with beautiful images (seen here) taken byvarious members of the New Zealand Institute of Professional Photographers. Our thanks to photographer Chris Hillock and Jason Roberton of Bullzeye Marketing and Design, who wereinstrumental in this project.

Sinceitsinception,wehaveraisedmorethan$7.5millioninourregiononDaffodilDay.Thisyear,weraised$713,075–a7.6%increase on last year’s efforts. Donors can now choose from sevendifferentdonationchannels– includingtext,online,0900number, street collection, National Bank or appeal envelope.

Despite some rather unseasonably stormy weather, this year’s Relay for Life went ahead – at double the speed and spirit! With the event running from 2pm til 7pm due to the bad weather,there was still plenty of time for the survivors’ lap, opening and closingceremoniesandlotsoffun,musicandprizesinbetween.Two hundred and seventeen thousand dollars was raised – an impressivefiguregiventheenvironment.

This year, we were pleased to be named as the recipients, alongside Look Good Feel Better, of the annual NZ House and Garden Tour in Tauranga hosted in March 2011. The funds raised from this event will be donated to us later in 2011.

Supporting Research and Cancer Professionals Helping reduce the incidence and impact of cancer

Research plays a crucial role in reducing the incidence and impact of cancer.

Eachyearourdivisioncontributes$375,000towardstheCancerSociety of New Zealand’s $3 million national research fund. This year, that fund enabled eight major research projects to continue, including:

• Atrialofpreoperativetherapyforgastric and esophagogastric cancer (Dr Christopher Jackson and Dr Shaun Costello,University of Otago, Dunedin School of Medicine)

• Astudy intowhethergeneticandgenomic technologiescanhelp us to improve survival from prostate cancer (ProfessorLynnette Ferguson and Dr Jonathan Masters, The University of Auckland)

• Three separate studies looking at breast cancer treatment, including an Australian and New Zealand trial on the use of Anastrozole“hormonetreatment”inpostmenopausalwomenwith hormone sensitive breast cancer, who will receive both surgeryandradiationtreatment(DrMariaPearseandDrDavidPorter, Auckland City Hospital)

• A project to better define the role of linker histone H1 andthe chromatin proteins constituting the HP1 family in tumour progressionsonewandimprovedtherapiescanbeindentified(DrTraceyHaleandDrAlejandroContreras,MasseyUniversity).

For more information on these national research projects, please visitcancernz.org/research

Regionally, we have continued to support Dr Michael Jameson, Clinical Director of Medical Oncology at Waikato Hospital, and his team with their clinical research. This funding has helped enabled a number of studies and trials, including:• AtrialofManukahoneycreamasapreventativeofradiation

burns in breast cancer patients. Dr Nichola Naidoo, who conducted this trial while training as a radiotherapy specialist at Waikato Hospital, is presenting its very encouraging results at a major European Radiation Oncology conference in Stockholm in September 2011.

• Investigations intoblood samples to evaluate the impactofpatients’ chemotherapy and radiation treatment on their circulating white blood cells and other markers of activity and toxicity,aswellasbloodlevelsofseleniumandchemotherapy.This work, undertaken by Richard Lobb - a Master of Science student in the Molecular Genetics Laboratory at the University of Waikato - will be published in a clinical trial report to be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal.

Excitingly,someof the team’s researchprojectsarenowbeingexpandedtoincludecollaborationswithmajorinstitutionsintheUS and Australia.

We also funded the Waikato Breast Care Register this year, in conjunction with The New Zealand Breast Cancer Foundation. Established in 2005, the register now has 95% of women with newly diagnosed breast cancer in the Waikato region up to 2009. Mr Ian Campbell, associate professor of surgery and clinical directoroftheBreastCareCentre,reportedthatafirstanalysisof the database was produced this year which shows, amongst other findings, significant inequalities for Maori and Pacificwomen. These results may be used to improve care for those with breast cancer .

We continue to be actively involved in the Midland Cancer Network, one of four regional cancer networks set up by Cancer Control New Zealand – the independent advisory body appointed by the Ministry of Health to ensure the country’s cancer control strategy is implemented.

By working with the inequalities manager at the Midland Cancer Network this year, our support services team were able to present information, on prostate and bowel cancer in particular, to groups at Raukaura Hauora O Tainui in Huntly, the Te Rapakau PacificTrust,theRauawaawaTrustinFranktonaspartofTainuiKaumatua forums and at Kirikiriroa Marae for Te Kohao Health. These forums also provided us with an opportunity to build relationshipswithMaoriandPacificcommunityhealthworkers.

Waikato Regional Cancer Centre Report

TheWaikatoRegionalCancerCentre(WRCC)continuestoworkin an atmosphere of change within the Waikato District Health Board, Health Waikato and Waikato Hospital. We endeavour to provide the best service to all our patients and would like to thank the Waikato/Bay of Plenty Division of the Cancer Society of New Zealand for the opportunity to report on our year.

Our new management structure consisting of a nurse manager, clinical unit leader and a unit manager is embedding and providing a holistic approach to strategic planning and management of the unit. At the WRCC, Peter Kirk from palliative care has taken on the responsibility of clinical unit leader and we are lucky to have AlliedHealth(occupationalgroupswithintheDHB)representedinour unit manager Shelley Donnell.

Over the last year we have been developing our clinical governance quality structure which is providing the framework for early recognition of potential risks and the opportunity for active improvement of our service. This is part of a national quality improvement programme as described on the Quality Improvement Committee website.

Both our inpatient and outpatient areas are involved with the ‘releasing time to care initiative’; an extension of lean thinking,designed specifically for clinical patient areas. The outpatientdepartment isoneof thefirstoutpatientareas tobe taken intothe programme and we are hoping to build on the work carried out over the last few years with the help of Margie Hamilton of the Midland Cancer Network.

Our radiotherapy unit successfully completed the replacement of one of its accelerators, with minimal disturbance to service. The department is also contending with the ongoing service campus redevelopment. We are making sure that the possibility of vibration, created by the demolition and construction work, effecting our equipment is being mitigated by liaising closely with thePropertyandInfrastructureOffice.

The relocation of the Lion’s Cancer Lodge has been a great success with the WRCC working with the Cancer Society to ensure our patients had a seamless transition. We hope to continue to work closely with the lodge to ensure all patients haveaspositiveanexperienceaspossible.TheCancerSocietyvolunteerscontinuetoprovideexcellentservicetoourunitandwewouldliketoexpressourappreciationfortheirservice.

We continue to work closely with the Midland Cancer Network and our neighbouring District Health Boards, on priorities set out by the Ministry of Health and the Cancer Control Strategy. These

include standardising a range of treatment and care pathways with a focus on lung and bowel cancer; meeting government health targets for the provision of both radiotherapy and medical oncology; and improving how we capture and report this data.

Assisting patients to access information about how to stop smoking, both for themselves and for family or friends is also a priority and measured health target. We will be raising the visibilityofthisprogrammeoverthenextyear.Smokingcanbeanemotive issue but as the health professionals most involved with cancer, both treatment and prevention, we have a responsibility toprovidetheinformation(www.quit.org.nz) and the tools to help people make an informed choice.

In closing I would like to say thank you on behalf of both the staff and patients of the WRCC for the help and support of the Waikato/Bay of Plenty Division of the Cancer Society. We look forward to continuing and improving the relationship we have with the society and working together to meet any future challenges andtheongoingdrivetoimprovethepatientexperience.

Notes to and forming part of the Financial StatementsStatement of Accounting Policies

Reporting EntityWaikato/Bay of Plenty Division Cancer Society of New Zealand (Inc),hereinafterreferredtoasthedivision,isasocietyregisteredunder the Incorporated Societies Act 1908.

The financial statements of the division are a general purposereport which has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting practices.

Measurement BaseThe accounting principles recognised as appropriate for the measurementandreportingofearningsandfinancialpositionona historical cost basis are followed by the division.

Specific Accounting PoliciesThefollowingspecificaccountingpolicieswhichmateriallyaffectthemeasurementoffinancialperformanceandfinancialpositionhave 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 whicharesubjecttoaninsignificantriskofchangesinvalue,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 and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment.

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 eventoccurringaftertheimpairmentwasrecognised(suchasan 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.

3. Property Plant and Equipment Fixed Assets are valued at cost price less accumulated

depreciation.

DepreciationofFixedAssets. Depreciation has been charged using the straight line method

forallassetsexceptlandwhichisnotdepreciated.

Specificratesusedare: 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 theStatement of Financial Performance, loans and receivables, held tomaturity investmentsandavailable-for-sale financialassets.Theclassificationdependsonthepurposeforwhichthe investments were acquired. Management determines theclassificationof its investmentsat initial recognitionandre-evaluates this designation at every reporting date. At balancedate,thesocietyonlyhadfinancialassetsclassifiedas available-for-sale.

Available-for-sale Financial Assets Available-for-salefinancialassetsarenonderivativesthatare

eitherdesignated inthiscategoryornotclassified inanyofthe 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 asavailable-for-salefinancialassets.

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 plustransactioncosts.Available-for-salefinancialassetsaresubsequently 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 inequity.

5. Trade and Other Payables These amounts represent unsecured liabilities for goods

and services provided to the society prior to the end of the financialyearwhichareunpaid.Tradeandotherpayablesarerecognised 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 isrecognised when the right to receive the revenue has been established. All revenue is stated net of the amount of goods andservicestax(GST).

7. GST These financial statements have been prepared on a GST

exclusivebasisexceptforaccountsreceivableandaccountspayable.

8. Income Tax The division has been granted Charitable Status and is

exemptfromincometaxbytheInlandRevenueDepartment.

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 advantageofallavailabledifferentialreportingexemptions.

Changes in Accounting PoliciesThere have been no changes in accounting policies. All policies have been applied on a basis consistent with those from previous financialstatements.
