The Foundation is working to change this by funding research to improve treatments, advocating alongside women for fair access to healthcare, providing support wherever women live across Aotearoa, and raising awareness of the symptoms so women know when to seek help and speak up for their health.At The Muster, the Foundation will be sharing information and resources to help women better understand ovarian cancer and the support available. Their stall will be fronted by Holly Townsend, Kaiwhakahaere Hononga, Tautoko hoki – Engagement and Support Coordinator, who will be available to answer questions and connect women with the right information.
