As a result of this week’s earthquake in Christchurch, Plunket’s March Appeal has been delayed.

Plunket’s current focus is on getting Christchurch based services up and running and to provide assistance to Christchurch’s families and children.

If any funds are received as a result of advertising material placed prior to Tuesday’s earthquake, those funds will be directed to assist families and children in the Canterbury region.

Plunket hopes to be able to resume its normal services to local communities across the Canterbury region as quickly as possible. For more information please check Plunket's Christchurch earthquake updates page.

PlunketLine is continuing to operate as normal. If you urgently need advice from Plunket please call PlunketLine on 0800 933 922, or if your baby is unwell please call HealthLine on 0800 611 116.
