Our first fundraiser event in the South Island for 2017 is here!

The City2Surf in Christchurch is a fun run and walk for the young and old, fast or slow, individuals or families and we are encouraging our members to represent Team CNZ Christchurch. Choose between a 14km or 6km course and find us at the finish line and enjoy GF food and drinks.

Our goal is to raise $3000 to go towards funding activities for our Christchurch Kids Club. Why? Because we understand that when kids with coeliac disease go on school trips, birthday parties or simply going out with the family, they feel like they're 'missing out' and parents face the difficulty of ensuring the food available is safe for their loved ones. Our aim is organise fun, family activities where children can feel a sense of normality and parents can be assured that their child is in a completely safe, gluten free environment. We also recognise that some families struggle to budget in this area, so we hope to reduce the costs involved as part of our obligation to provide support.

We hope to be able to fund activities such as kids' cooking classes, trips to the zoo, picnics and BBQs at the beach, fish & chips day. Funds will help cover the costs involved in hosting such an event including food, transport, equipment hire, entry fees and more.

We strive to provide as much support as possible to our members and hope you can join us in our endeavour!
