Everyone deserves the best support during cancer.
In 2024, Cancer Society Nelson Tasman proudly celebrated 60 years of supporting people in our region through their cancer journey. Since 1964, our work has been grounded in the strength of our local community, shaped by those who have walked through our doors, volunteered their time, or stood beside us in support. That deep local connection remains central to how we operate today. In a time when many services are becoming more centralised, our presence across the Nelson Tasman region continues to be built on meaningful relationships, place-based knowledge, and the trust we’ve earned over decades of care.
The Nelson and Motueka Centres focus primarily on enhancing patient and family support systems in the Nelson and Tasman regions; improving community well-being through health promotion (e.g. Smokefree, SunSmart); providing information and resources for the local medical community and the general public and networking to improve communication links with other related organisations.
Cancer patients and their families deserve access to the best possible support available. The Cancer Society Centres in Nelson and Motueka are your first point of contact for cancer services.
